Yup,
The [EMAIL PROTECTED] sys admin of my home machine, (that's me,)
decided to fool the automounter into using '/' to mount his
partiions on and lost his entire filesystem. Pouff,
everything that was not a mounted partition gone!!! Now I
realize that I shouldn' have been deceitfull to the poor
little autofs daemon, I told hime to use '/.' since he
balked at '/', but did I really deserve this?
So a few questions:
1) Why does the automounter delete files (or entire filesystems)?
2) How can one go about automounting a cdrom on /cdrom?
3) Should this be fixed? i.e. if it's bad to use slash, then
should any other path that works out to be slash be checked
also? :)
4) Are my files really gone? Is there anything I can do to
recover? (it is an ext3 fs, not ext2)
Still weeping/laughing,
-Martin
