testdisk /dev/mapper/truecrypt0 or testdisk /dev/loop0 to repair the NTFS or FAT32 boot sector files from a TrueCrypt partition. To repair a filesystem not listed by TestDisk, run testdisk device, i.e. testdisk 'image.?' if the Encase image is split into several files. testdisk image.E01 to recover files from an Encase EWF image. testdisk image.dd to work from a raw disk image. To recover partition from a media image or repair a filesystem image, run Under OS/2, TestDisk doesn't handle a physical device, only a disk image.
