This page is a small tutorial explaining the installation of Foremost on OS X Lion.
- The first step is to download foremost on its sourceforge website (here)
- Open a Terminal and type in the following lines :
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
$ cd /Download $ tar zxvf foremost-xx.tar.gz $ cd foremost-xx $ sudo make mac $ sudo make macinstall |
Foremost should now be up and running. To try a recovery from a USB drive type the following command :
|
1 |
sudo foremost -v -T -i /dev/disk1/ -o /Users/Noktec/Desktop/ForemostOutput/ -t all |
In this case we used the options :
- -v for verbose mode
- -T for timestamp
- -i which is the input (the usb drive)
- -o the output (the directory where the files are located)
- -t the files to recover (in this case all file types)
And that’s it.
