hello,
i have a damaged harddisk that doesn't even show a partition list (there were two: a fat32 one and an ntfs one).

can i use this method to resuce data to a partition? thanks in advance.

The best method: Antonio Diaz's GNU 'ddrescue'

The best solution - both faster and more efficient - seems to be Antonio Diaz's 'ddrescue' (ddrescue)

# download ddrescue
wget http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/ddrescue/ddrescue-1.8.tar.bz2
# extract the source code
tar xjf ddrescue-1.8.tar.bz2
# compile ddrescue
cd ddrescue-1.8
./configure && make
# first, grab most of the error-free areas in a hurry:
./ddrescue -n /dev/old_disk /dev/new_disk rescued.log
# then try to recover as much of the dicy areas as possible:
./ddrescue -r 1 /dev/old_disk /dev/new_disk rescued.log
