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. :-) /Peter > Hello! > > I just accidently deleted some files that I really shouldn't have done, > ironically during a backup process.
