Thanks Testdisk might be able to help. What exactly should I be looking for in testdisk? I checked structure, it is ok. Should I do deeper search? And what means Index root attribute missing in directory inode 5? The problem you reported was inability to mount a USB stick. Testdisk helps you recover from disk/file system corruption. I suggest you use ddrescue to create an image of the NTFS partition on the USB stick and retry ntfsfix against the image. Assuming ntfsfix works, you can then mount the image using the loop option. e.g. ddrescue /dev/sdx1 ./ntfs.img ntfsfix ./ntfs.img mkdir ntfs-image mount -o loop ./ntfs.img ./ntfs-image If ntfsfix doesn't work, try using testdisk against the .img file. Once you've got your files copied to a new stick, don't use the old one. Thanks for your suggestion. However I am afraid I can't create .img file because my internal disk is 128 GB and my unmountable drive is 2 TB. ( it is 3'5 external usb disk, not a USB stick ). In that case, get another USB drive or internal SATA drive of sufficient capacity to make the copy. Once you have a good copy that you have verified / fixed, you can reformat the faulty drive. Do a full reformat, not a quick one, as the full reformat verifies the disk surface and marks bad blocks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
