My boss needs some files from an old hard drive. We have it connected with a PATA to USB adapter.
dmesg

I copied the whole drive with dd to /var/tmp/scodisk. I ran strings and extracted a large text file which has much of what he needs but it is hard to use.
The sysv filesystem support was removed so I found and compiled an HTFS driver.
sudo mount -t fuse ./htfs /mnt/scodisk
mount: /home/wsd/htfs-0.1.1/src/htfs on /mnt/scodisk type fuse.htfs (rw,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0)
sudo mount -t fuse ./htfs --source /dev/sdc --target /mnt/scodisk
/bin/sh: /dev/sdc: Permission denied
sudo mount -t fuse ./htfs --source /var/tmp/scodisk --target /mnt/scodisk
/bin/sh: /var/tmp/scodisk: Permission denied
cd /usr/sbin ln -s /home/wsd/htfs-0.1.1/src/htfs mount.htfs
lsblk --fs (no UUIDs on the sdc line)
sudo mount -t fuse ./htfs /dev/sdc (sdc disappears from fdisk -l)
What am I missing?
