I heard a story some years back about Linus (the kernel guy) deleted his files by mistake, but he managed to get everything back. Try search in google for a while and see if undeletion can be done. It should be, as normally the sectors are not overriten/wiped when you do a delete. First hit in google may help. http://www.stud.tu-ilmenau.de/~mojo/undelete.html BTW, turn the power off that machine immediately, the longer u leave it running, the more chances the sectors will be overwritten by new data. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
