Gpart is a small tool which tries to guess what partitions are on a PC type,
|
|
|
|
MBR-partitioned hard disk in case the primary partition table was damaged.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gpart works by scanning through the device (or file) given on the command
|
|
|
|
line on a sector basis. Each guessing module is asked if it thinks a
|
|
|
|
filesystem it knows about could start at a given sector. Several
|
|
|
|
filesystem guessing modules are built in.
|
|
|
