do it in an Ariadne sh shell and remember NOT to reboot before untar-ng successfully...

i want to restore backup by ubuntu
i do whatever listed in first post
i enter this ''flasher --load -k vmlinuz-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-adaptation-n950-bootloader -n initrd.img-rescue-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-n950 --boot''
in ubuntu terminal while the phone is connected to USB cable in sync Mode

and after seconds it succeed
and phone reboot & show the kernel editing alarm
but this one ''now after a min , all partitions on N9 ( rootfs home mydoc ) showed like a usb flash on linux ( if these not showed , you must using " fdisk -l " to know whats the addres of N9 partitions on your pc , and mount these )''

not happen

and because of that i can't use this command ''tar -xvf <locations of backup file> -C /media/rootfs/''
for restoring backup file

so what shoud i do to recognizing my phones partition in ubuntu?

tanx

what you should do is power off your device, enter the flasher commands then plug in your powered off device to your pc...

MaKenZi,

Would you be able to post the output of what happens when you plug in your powered off device to the USB? Did you ensure your phone is really powered off by pressing the power button for 8-10 seconds?
