Now, before I start sending hate mails to the author/packager, is there any way to recover deleted data from en ext3 filesystem?


First things first: mount it readonly immediately (or leave it unmounted).
Image it using dd to a file, and store that away somewhere safe (such as in
a DVD media).

I will let people with more experience in data recovery tell you how to
salvage ext3 inodes (I only did it to ext2 so far).


Okay, at least I didn't install anything since this happened.
But there is another problem:
This partition contains the data from /usr/share and /home and when I try to unmount it: Error (device is busy).

What now?
