I'm using an Ubuntu LiveCD right now and need to recover files from a (Windows 7) partition. I've read about TestDisk and tried downloading it and untaring it but:

testdisk-6.14-WIP.linux26.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

I don't know why it doesn't work (noob). I tried using sudo apt-get install testdisk but:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package testdisk

so.... HELP :D
