Hi everyone, I lost my complete home directory and am facing the problem of retrieving some of the deleted data. I have search the web for this matter, but the only information I found is, that it's not possible for a program to do this and that I have to puzzle the files together by scanning the disk (or disk image) with tools like sleuthkit (www.sleuthkit.org) or lde (lde.sourceforge.net). That's ok, since the only files I like to recover are text files (c and java sourcecode). But even though I read the ext2-undelete-minihowto (which doesn't apply to ext3, I know) I honestly don't know how to start. The partition is 11GB and the data could be anywhere. Can anyone please describe a sensible approach to this task. I'm really helpless :( Thanks in advance Andreas -- GMX ProMail mit bestem Virenschutz http://www.gmx.net/de/go/mail +++ Empfehlung der Redaktion +++ Internet Professionell 10/04 +++ _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
