>From a previous request on how to recover data on a partition that
mkreiserfs was ran on, I have a question on the possibility of
recovering data that you have rmed.
Is there a way you can have debugreiserfs spit out the raw data on
inodes with the deleted tag? Or maybe just the inode numbers with the
deleted tag?

My problem is that I accidentally deleted, by rm -r this_folder, a few
weeks ago.  I looked up for an undel(ete) program for reiser, and found
only Midnight Commander with this capability.  If all fails, it is also
possible to port mc to do a "undel:/dev/sda3", similarly to a EXT2
partition?

After I ran the rm command, almost immediately, maybe in 5 minutes after
freaking out, unmounted the reiser partition, edited /etc/fstab to make
the partition read-only, and remounted it.  Since then, I have not put a
write-protected on the whole SCSI disk with a jumper because it is
/dev/sdA and it's on a Compaq computer, so the first partition is
literally the BIOS for the comp, and that definately requires
write-access in order to boot.  I have rebooted the computer a couple of
times since, but all have been after I set read-only in /etc/fstab for
/dev/sda3.

Any other suggestions?
