This little tool should be able to extract data from MBS flashcards, even when the filesystem has been corrupted by buggy Send software or firmware. It searches for typical MBS data patterns on the device and retrieves them.
If the flashcard is available as device /dev/sdb, one can run mbscopy as follows.
$ mbscopy /dev/sdb
To find out the device name, one can use the following command on Linux.
$ tail -f /var/log/syslog
Or on systems with systemd installed, like Fedora or ArchLinux:
$ dmesg -w
When the device is plugged in, a message with the device path should appear.
On Mac OS X it is possible to use the Disk Utility.app (in /Applications/Utilities).
The device path should look like /dev/disk2.
It is advisable not to mount any MBS cards and especially not try to repair or check the filesystem. This will make things worse and might destroy data.
If you have a C compiler installed you can easily build mbscopy with the following steps.
$ cd mbscopy/
$ make
If you do not have a compiler, you can install one on Ubuntu, Debian or Linux Mint with the following command.
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
If you are using Mac OS X, use this command instead.
$ xcode-select --install
