Resurrect NTFS partition after Win XP reinstall

Posted by akiko on June 9, 2010 at 9:19 pm

The system was missing my partition E, or my Storage partition. It was wiped out. Storage manager denoted it as unallocated space. A quick reboot into Ubuntu ended up with same knowledge: Unallocated space.

No space for panic. Google comes, google helps. I found a marvelous little command line tool which was able to revamp my Storage NTFS partition in about 10 seconds. It’s called testdisk.

Lighttpd and (network.c.529) SSL error

I just realized that the latest Lighttpd you may find in FreeBSD ports (and in all Linux distros actually) is a bit buggy. Apparently there is an error in network.c which will crash your HTTPS.
