If it shows up under sdc1, sdd1, sde1, etc. Now in gparted check to see where your thumbdrive shows up. just substitute the proper name for the drive when getting to If your drive shows up under sdb, sdc, sdd etc. The drive should contain several EXT3 partitions and a rather large EXT4 partition Once you get to the desktop, open gparted and check to see where your MyBookLive shows under. When the system menu comes up select to “directly start the graphical environment” Now we want to boot off the SystemRescue CD you burned above. If you want to debrick the hard drive and KEEP YOUR EXISTING DATA on the data partition intact then follow these steps STEP 5 (BOOTING THE SYSTEM RESCUE CD AND DEBRICKING THE HARD DRIVE WITHOUT TOUCHING THE DATA PARTITION) You can try a usb to sata connector but many people have run into problems with this setup To sata or sata to sata cable and you disconnect any other hard drives to ensure you don’t accidentally delete data on those drives Make sure your thumbdrive containing the two files is plugged in, your MyBookLive hard drive is hooked up to your computer via e-sata STEP 4 (PREPARING TO BOOT THE SYSTEM RESCUE CD) Use 7zip or WinRAR to extract the debricking script “debrick.sh” from the “debrick.rar” file you downloaded aboveĬopy “debrick.sh” and “rootfs.img” to your thumbdrive
#Otixo mybooklive iso#
Next burn the SystemRescueCd ISO to a blank CD
#Otixo mybooklive install#
Install 7zip and point it to your MyBookLive firmware “b” and double click and you will see “data.tar” where you will again double click and be presented with a “.” Double click the “.” then double click “cache volume” then double click “upgrade” and then highlight “rootfs.img” and hit extract. User Daremo had success recovering data off of a MyBookLive with a bad partition table using this programĪn example of a good partition table on a 1TB MyBookLive is as follows MyBookLive:~# partedGNU Parted 2.2Using /dev/sdaWelcome to GNU Parted!

Hook up the drive to your computer or a SATA dock and copy your data to another drive with enough space on your computer.
#Otixo mybooklive download#
If at this point you would like to pull your data off the MyBookLive for safe keeping, download Disk Internals Linux Reader for Windows You just need a small flathead screwdriver and something thin like 2 credit cards to work the latches loose. There’s only 4 latches holding the cover on (2 on each side).
