[Discuss] FAT data recovery through Linux?

Hello all,

	I have a FAT32 partition that does not mount on any system I have (yes, 
even in Linux) and it has data that I would really like to access. I 
found a windows application that will recover the data, but I would much 
rather boot into my Linux install and do the work there.
	I have tried my GooFu, but it must be weak as I am unable to find 
anything about using Linux to recover data.
	I know how to use dd, but my understanding is that it makes an exact 
copy and this won't help me.

	Does anyone have any leads they can offer?

Thanks in advance!
