Subject: Re: Undeleting files on ReiserFS partition

I admit I didn't google on the problem before posting here. Now as I've
done that, I see it's a quite common problem, without an arbitrary
solution. The only way I've found out to 'undelete' files is to rebuild
the entire file system tree, using reiserfsck with the '--rebuild-tree'
parameter. I think, however, that this is more pain than gain, so I'll
just grieve and hope I'll learn something from this... that is for
exemple, to make backups. :-)
