While sorting a large set of files this morning I mindlessly did a \rm -fr on the directory I had sorted. The 11GB of sorted files was quickly reduced by 4GB ...<snip/>
Since I've been told this is out of Linux's hands please excuse the Windows question.
I now have a free undelete util that 'sees' all the erroronously deleted files on my drive. Attempts at the 'undelete' function on these files render an error that basically says 'cluster in use'
In win2k computer management the volume says "active" which agrees w/ the error that Disk Investigator is throwing. I've since rebooted the win2k box twice, ensured no programs exist on the disk in question (strictly an mp3 disk), changed the drive letter and it still labels it's self active. Two other partions on this drive lack that active label.
I even removed the drive letter and rebooted but it still says it's being used? (a w2k umount of sorts..)
Anyone with an idea on how to get Windows' hands off my drive so I can use this undelete gizmo?
