Re: how to restore deleted directory/files

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi,


Thanks for your reply. The file system type is xfs. And I found xfsdump/xfsrestore can undo the remove.


I use dd to copy the partition as one image file. How do I mount the image as read-only device? Then I can try to recover the deleted files/directory anytime.


Thanks!


Regards


Andrew
