Restore from backup. You did have a backup didn't you? If it wasn't backed
up it wasn't important.

I haven't used the reiser recovery tools. Not even sure there are any. rm
is supposed to mean the data is gone. It is only because DOS was such a
lame filesystem that we have come to expect the possibility of undelete.
One thing you definitely need to do is to NOT write anything else to the
disk or you will lose any chance you had of recovering the data.

Right now I only have one backup of my data. Scary. At least it's on a
RAID. Need to run off another set of DVD's...
