i have an ext2 partition that used to be /home
during an upgrade that partition was accidently formatted. the data is still
(mostly) on the raw partition ('cat /dev/hda4 | strings' shows up my data)
but the root inode doesn't know about it. i haven't done anything further to
the partition other than to make a backup using dd.
anyone know of any tools to rescue the data?
i tried e2retrieve (http://www.guzu.net/linux/e2retrieve.php), e2undel
(http://e2undel.sourceforge.net/) and e2salvage
(http://e2salvage.sourceforge.net/) but none of them compile properly under
the latest gcc (ver 3.3.5-1 / ubuntu hoary).
any help would be appreciated.
cheers
marty
