I do not know if that list is the proper one but.... i have by mistake overwritten one file by the empty one. Very important one. That was - home.tar so i am very interested in restoring that file. File was on a single disk which was not used afterwards, filesystem: ext2, filesize about 370 MB. I have found nice tool: R-linux on the net which i have used to read disk sector by sector. Then i localised beginnig of the file (which was actually the first file written to that partition) and beginning of the next file (which was also tar archive). Then i used tool for writing all sectors between the begining of the header of lost file and begining of the header of the next one - I have written all those sectors to the file lost.bin on the other disk. I looked through it and realized that it, in general, looked like a regular tar file - so I have renamed it to back.tar and tried to untar. I got just few of the files, and even these were not whole. Although, when i look through it i can see ALL files inside. I think it is possible to do every single file manually - but it is quite a lot of files so.... when i tried -i option in tar (ignore zeros) then i got all files but these were not whole - just first parts. Does anyone have any idea what to do???? /Wiktor
