So, fingers firmly crossed, have I managed to copy enough of my hard
drive with the first two commands to be able to patch back the
catastrophic damage I seem to have done with the last command.
Could someone more confident than I give me some instruction:)
sorry ... dd is final ... it did what you said as a root user. dont
you love linux ... it does EXACTLY what you say when you are root.
The point was Morgan has an accidental sort-of backup of the bit
he dd-ed over.
he copied 1280 blocks .... then overwrote it with 2348 blocks ... the
damage is done
