From: GK > Try ddrescue since the partition wasn't journalized you have a > higher margin of success in recovering it. What? ddrescue is for getting around problems with failing hardware, not for undeleting files on an ext2fs. It won't help with the OP's problem unless they've significantly changed the project's goals in the last few years. There are plenty of things about undeleting files on an ext2fs, but the top Google hit is from 2002 and contains a link to an "undelete" tool. It might work. If you have enough disk space, just dd the hosed disk to a file somewhere and try whatever undelete tool you like on that file. That way, if the tool fails miserably, you can start over with a different tool (or different parameters) and see if that works better. -- Matt G / Dances With Crows The Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
