Hello people.
I've messed up good, and now I need you nice folks to help me recover
500GB of irreplaceable home video, the full 7 years of my family
trove. :(
I mistakenly used mdadm to *create* an array instead of *starting* the
array (big Duh!). Now the array has no partition table. I shudder to
think I may have clobbered not only the array but also the file
system. I hardly slept last night. Acceptance is a process. :/
I've learned my lesson there, no more fiddling with "--assume-clean"
(which was a stupid idea in the first place), but the issue remains:
how do I get to the file system that I know is still there? The array
is up but obviously it was never mounted.
Can I just recreate the partition table and it works?.... or do I have
to use some complex form of forensics to recover the data?
Thank you very much,
Vasco.
