Hello,
i am going to made a very raw tool, in assembler language, to save some files from a damaged pfs2 partition to a working partition.
The strategy is: read the sectors, one by one or in fixed-sized blocks and scan the blocks itself to find files stored on it, then, if something is found, follow the structure of how pfs2 store the data, to rebuild the file onto a working DOS partition.
The question is: what is the structure used by pfs2 to save data onto disks? The same of the fastfileystem as explained in Amiga Mail vol.1, under DOS?
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Stefano
