Recovery of lost partitions and files in Ubuntu

There is really nothing to say about it but one word: TestDisk.

Making a Video DVD from VIDEO_TS folder in Ubuntu

This task turned out to be easy to accomplish. Just 2 simple commands and voila.

1. mkisofs -dvd-video -o image.iso /dvd

where /dvd - the folder that contains VIDEO_TS folder.
This command will create iso file to burn to dvd disc.

2. growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/scd0=image.iso

The second command burnes iso image to the dvd disc.
