if you're using a gui like kde then the file might be in the trash if not, and you used rm, not likeley On November 6, 2002 01:04 pm, Gabriel Erzse wrote: Hi, Is there any possibility to recover deleted files in Redhat ?

RE: file recovery in Linux
If you know approximately what size the file was you could use a tool like e2undel (which uses debugfs), as long as the inode containing the file hasn't been overwritten with new data. Check it out at http://e2undel.sourceforge.net/ I have used it to recover files and it works quite well. Hope this helps, Andy. -Original Message- From: gabriel [mailto:the.angel.gabriel;rogers.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 6:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: file recovery in Linux if you're using a gui like kde then the file might be in the trash if not, and you used rm, not likeley On November 6, 2002 01:04 pm, Gabriel Erzse wrote: Hi, Is there any possibility to recover deleted files in Redhat ?

RE: file recovery in Linux
If you're looking to recover a file you've already deleted, I can't help you. But if you're looking to solve the problem in the future, you should consider installing libtrash. It gives Linux a real trash can that works in Gnome, KDE, the console, and everywhere else. - Robert -Original Message- From: Gabriel Erzse [mailto:erzse.gabriel;ssi-schaefer.ro] Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 2:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: file recovery in Linux Hi, Is there any possibility to recover deleted files in Redhat ?

On Wednesday 06 November 2002 08:00 pm, Gabriel Erzse's voice rose above the ones in my head and declared: Hi, Is there any possibility to recover deleted files in Redhat ? Gabi For Ext2fs, yes but it is a process and it is not guaranteed. Also, it involves preferrably umounting the filesystem that the file was deleted from immediately or as soon as possible after deletion so the inode isn't grabbed. See the linux documentation project for details. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/mini/Ext2fs-Undeletion.html Also there is a program called recover, a google search should turn it up right away, it's on sourceforge, that automates everything in the how-to. I spent a whole weekend trying to recover a directory I accidently deleted and still didn't get the one particular file I was looking for. I took me about a 1/2 hour before I discovered I needed to unmount the filesystem right away if possible though. Good luck, --Tom -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
