Something like 'lost+found' after fsck? > ffsrecov doesn't work with UFS2, as far as I know, Sleuth Kit also... This is a FAQ. Und the frequent answer is: You can easily recover valuable data after accsional deletion from your backup. If you don't have a backup, then your data don't seem to be woth having them backed up. Anyway: If you don't have the disk in r/w opeartion after the deletion for a long time or at least did not have many writes, there are programs that might recover special data like pictures from the disk blocks of a raw device, nearly independent from any filesystem. But that might take days an a usual harddisk, is limited to special filetypes and not always successful. - Oliver -- | Oliver Brandmueller | Offenbacher Str. 1 | Germany D-14197 Berlin | | Fon +49-172-3130856 | Fax +49-172-3145027 | WWW: http://the.addict.de/ | | Ich bin das Internet.
