Change Partition GUID id for GPT disk
Posted: Sun Oct 23, 2011 2:02 pm
I recently purchased R-Studio for Mac and was able to recover data inside a corrupted volume encrypted by TrueCrypt. Thank you R-TT!!!
The reason for the corruption is still unknown. It maybe a combination of TrueCrypt 7.1, Tuexda NTFS for Mac, Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 update, or simply hard drive partition that wasn't cleaned properly converted from MBR to GPT disk.
Here is my original issue

Now, I want to protect my TrueCrypt encrypted partition by changing the GUID partition type ID to prevent a program accidentally messing with it. Is it possible to do this using R-Studio for Mac? I know that R-Studio has Text/hexadecimal Editor. But I am not sure which template to use and which sector to look? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
