I have lost all partitions in my laptop's hard disk recently and its now showing as a raw disk.

I have made a bootable pen drive using Ubuntu-12.04 and trying to recover the lost data using TestDisk.

I have successfully installed the software and now when I'm running it, am getting this error.

testdisk: error while loading shared libraries: libntfs-3g.so.835: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

State of my System Partitions

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders, total 625142448 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000

You need to install the ntfs-3g package, as in sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g.
