Undeleting files on an ext3 filesystem

2003-07-03 Thread Kevin - KD Micro Software
Hello all, I've spent the last few hours reading articles and various links from Google on undeleting files from an ext3 filesystem. Someone ran rm -rf on a directory ( thankfully not / ) this morning which wiped out the last 2 months of that person's work. Obviously they aren't happy about it

Sean, I've had this before and it's usually a case of a badly burnt cd. Burn the cd again and it should be ok. The RH 8 install can check the cds for you before you start too. It might take a while but I suggest you do that to all your install cds before installing. Nothing worse than getting 50%
