Had I knew this I would have not used it so early, this detail you would think would make distributions wary to make it an option on the livecd with no warning that if you ever have a power cut you are most certainly going to lose your data even if your hardware is fine. Anyway is their any hope? Is there beta code for an fsck that can do repairs? How long do I have to wait before there is? I can always just wait for a few months to get the data back. Thanks Michael.
