I'm trying to recover a corrupt VDI using vdfuse
to mount the VDI and using dd_rescue
to rescue the borked partition.
dd_rescue
seems to be working fine but once it reached about half of the partition, it just STOPs and gives the following error:
ddrescue: write error: Read-only file system
Wait.. what? It suddenly turns the FS it is writing the recovered partition to into a read-only file system. Well... why? Will I never be able to finish this? What's going on?
