Is it possible to recover raw data which has not yet been overwritten
after a partition has been reformatted. I accidently re-formatted my home
partition and it is now my root partition but still has quite a bit of free
space on it. If anybody could tell me what utilities could read the free
space for any fragments of data, it'd be much appreciated. I have lost a lot
of emails and I would like to get them back even if it is only in raw data
format.
Trouble is now, I don't have a home partition. I only have a root partition.
Therefore I cannot unmount my root partion (SuSE has an annoying habit of
doing this). I wouldn't have erased it if my mum hadn't been shouting at me
at the time.
When trying to run 'recover' I get the following:
linux:/home/george/Documents/recover-1.3c # recover
