I used it successfully on a couple of occasions, once on my own drive and once to help out a friend.ĭata Rescue II/Mac is available from Prosoft for OS X.

It doesn't even attempt to repair the drive or the directories, it just figures out brilliantly how to get your files off the disk intact.

Several years ago in Mac OS 9 days I used a product called Data Rescue with great success. I own DiskWarrior and love it, but for the problem you are having, it may not necessarily work.

If possible, I'd like to get to a point which would permit me to Archive and Install. However, I have not done so because I'm afraid that I'll lose all the data and still have an unmountable volume. Even though it's unmounted and grayed out in Disk Utility, it appears that I do have the option to Erase the Macintosh HD. Alsoft's support page asks, "Is DiskWarrior capable of repairing an "invalid sibling link"?" but does not give a Yes or No answer also, the Alsoft tech support contact link is broken.Ĥ. It's not at all clear to me whether it will work on an unmounted volume. Alsoft's DiskWarrior is frequently and enthusiastically recommended in many, many posts dealing with OS X directory problems, but I'm wary of spending US$100 on it for two reasons:
What would be the proper syntax for attempting to mount the drive? I've tried "mount /dev/disk0s3" and "mount_hfs /dev/disk0s3"without success I'm sure this is at least partly because I did not specify a mount point, but I don't know how to do that.ģ. Is there a way to reiterate fsck_hfs -r with a shell script? (I'm not afraid of the command line, but I have to be told exactly what to do.) I'm not hopeful this page says, "fsck, the UNIX file system check program, can be run from a shell script only with the -y or -n options."Ģ. At this point, the Macintosh HD volume can be selected in Disk Utility, but is ghosted, and I have not been able to figure out how to mount it.ġ. I've put the Mac mini in Target Disk Mode and accessed it from another Mac, with no luck.
(I'll type in the MDB and VHB information if it would be helpful.)Īfter reading that fsck -r recursively attempts to rebuild the directory structure, and that others have succeeded after many repetitions, I've subsequently repeated fsck_hfs -r /dev/disk0s3 hundreds of times, with the same result. YOU MUST USE THE -b OPTION TO FSCK TO SUPPLY THE LOCATION OF AN ALTERNATE SUBER-BLOCK TO SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION SEE fsck(8)." "The volume Macintosh HD could not be repaired."
Determined (with df) that Macintosh HD is /dev/disk0s3.

From the Installer log: "Verify/Repair failed with error -9972 (the underlying task reported failure on exit) Install failed: Target volume is damaged and cannot be repaired by the Installer." Numerous subsequent attempts to Repair Macintosh HD yielded the same "Invalid sibling link" error. Repaired Permissions second Repair Permissions was clean. Received "Invalid sibling link" error message when DU tried to Repair the Macintosh HD volume. The physical HD's S.M.A.R.T status is Verified. After many, many hours of googling, here's what I've tried:īooted from Installer DVD and ran Disk Utility. My Mac mini (1.5GHz G4 running Tiger 10.4.11) failed to boot after a power interruption it wouldn't get past the gray Apple screen with slowly rotating gear.
