you might get a few utilities, but I did that not to long ago, and it was just faster to use my backup and restore it, only took about 5-10 mins to get home back since I back the entire thing up..

Btw, I don't think there are any 'linux' utilities for this, you might get some software vender type stuff though.

I take it you don't do backups? shame shame.. ;)



right I didn't take any backups before. I usually keep my home partition in sync on my laptop as well as desktop.. however, last week I had to format my laptop to install windows as my job required me to have a windows box :(
I did bought a new disk to use it as a permanent backup drive and was going to format it .. but instead of formatting it, I formatted the home dir. Don't know what I was thinking at that time. may be because its a friday and my brain stopped working.


I found somethig called R-linux from http://www.r-tt.com but not sure if it will work. I'll try to use it and see if I can get anything.

luckily enough though all my mails are saved on my work computer(windows) in mozilla thunderbird. Hopefully, I can import them to linux mozilla?
apart from the mails, there's not many important stuff lost, just some programs I worte and so I think I can write them again though it will take some time.
