-----Original Message----- From: arch-general-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Mauro Santos Sent: Tue 12/6/2011 17:51 Give testdisk a try, it might not be able to recover everything though, depending on what you've done to the fs after you deleted the files. +++ Thank you everybody for your replies. Somebody asked what happened. As root I wanted to run rm -r /media/path/to/a/partition I made 2 typos, one of the typos was a space behind /media rm -r /media /path/to/a/partition When I noticed the space I directly pushed Ctrl+C, but my SATA drives seem to be very fast. After that accident I directly remounted the drives to read only, all recovery trials should be done read only too. Anyway, now or tomorrow I'll install Arch and perhaps next week, I'll try to recover the data again. Cheers! Ralf
