I have tried the instructions at: http://recover.sourceforge.net/unix/ (one of the first things I did try) ...and I got a whole lot of garbage spit back to my screen; so much so, I had to quit. I am attempting to do something along these lines: grep -a -B10000 -A0 "wowerpresumes" /dev/hdfb ...and since I'm not sure what to put for B and A, I may be doing something wrong here. I don't recall how large the directory was 'before' things were deleted. - Eve - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
