Re: [opensuse] undelete files that were deletet with rm?
Hello community ! Ken Schneider wrote: I just wanted to type rm *~ to kill the backup files in my folder. Accidently, I slid of the key and mistyped the command.

Which is why I always recommend to people to use rm -i -if- they are using -any- wildcards at all. It might be a pain in the butt to answer 'y' for each file but in this case you would have saved more than just time. That's why I use the alias feature of bash to set the -i-option for most of the dangerous commands dealing with file on CLI level ... alias cp='cp -pi' alias mv='mv -i' alias rm='rm -i' Unfortunately this is not the help the original poster needs now ... -- Never give up !

No ! I use the -f-option in conjunction with the -r-option only to remove folders. The question is how often one needs to delete files, right ? ;-) -- Never give up !

Can Knoppix help? Root partitions cannot be unmounted during operation, only at shut-down. An alternate root / boot (including Knoppix or UBCD) will allow unmounted manipulation of a file system that cannot otherwise be unmounted during normal operations, but even more changes will be made to that file system during the shutdown process. In fact, given normal system operations (logging, e.g.) and the fact that your files are all on one file system (and the fact that you've been using the system for, say, this email dialog?) suggests you are rather unlikely to be able to recover much.

What I said is true of cp but not of rm! (The cp behavior always bugs me 'cause adding the -f doesn't help and I have to enter the full path name to the binary if I want to overwrite a file with the cp command.)

If your data is/was important, then STOP using the partition/disk! Get another disk and attach that to your system (slave). Use a liveCD (knoppix, SLAX, DSL, whatever you prefer) to boot your machine. dd the partition with the deleted files to your second disk. Now you have a copy of the affected disk/partition and you can start the process of learning data recovery. You can experiment with reiserfs debugging tools as well as TSK/Autopsy and data carving with foremost. The most important point is to stop using the partition/disk right away. The Reiser filesystem is very robust and makes good use of space, unlike MS filesystems. Deleted files are very difficult to recover from Reiser filesystems -- though not impossible.

Re: [opensuse] undelete files that were deletet with rm?
Thanks for the hint, but the lost data is on my notebook. I cannot easily connect my IDE disk to it (don´t have an adapter). I´ve got a 250GB external USB-Harddisk, but it´s formatted with NTFS and Linux cannot write to this filesystem. I guess it is a lot faster when I sit down one or two days and rewrite the data (the deleted files where the PHP Files of our Hompage at the Economics Chair of our university) than to try and handle with different disks and programs. ;) I hoped there would be an easy to use programm to recover the deleted files. Install, rescue, be happy - you know?
