Recovering from MKFS

2011-08-04 Thread Ethan Rosenberg
Dear list - I ran mkfs -L on an external usb drive, hoping to change it's name, which it did. It, of course, rewrote the inode tables, which I did not realize that it would, and I cannot find my files on the disk. Is there any way to recover the files? Thanks. Ethan Debian 6.0.1a
