Well, it's kind of strange. I aborted the dd as soon as I became aware
of my moment of crass stupidity and I can still see part of the
directory structure, with quite a few file names in there showing proper
file sizes, but these seem to be empty of data.
I still have
"/dev/mapper/udisks-luks-uuid-c1a534b4-d1ba-40d0-adb8-6d2490f06ade-uid9330
on /media/Seagate_1.5 type xfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks)", and
obviously I have the pass phrase.
I suppose it's the key that's gone, and there's the kicker, right?
