My root filesystem is ext4 too, yet, but I tried to somehow convince giis-ext4 to undeleted files from another device, mounted to /mnt/d1. > 2.Have you added the directory /mnt/d1 using "giis-ext4 --install" option? No, I did not do that. I have the the INSTALL file mentioning the "-i" switch but I did not know what it meant with "which directories to protect". I take it that giis-ext4 will be running as a cronjob, scanning the "protected directories" and keeping a log of changes in there, to be able to recover them later on? > Because you need to configure it to protect important directories, in this > case add /mnt/d1 before running "giis-ext4 -g". I've tried that now. However, I cannot add /mnt/d1 (which is a ext4 mountpoint) to the list, as giis-ext4 will segfault then. When I add some directory from the root filesystem, --install will run successfully. Christian. Script started on Sat Feb 13 21:59:34 2010 # df -h .
