recover files after mkdosfs
oops... i did what I'm sure everyone warns against...
I'd backed up all my movies/music on /dev/hdb3 and created /dev/hdb7,
and sure enough, I mistakenly pointed mkdosfs at /dev/hdb3 instead of
the newly created partition.
any thoughts or suggestions on how I can find/recover some of the files that were on /dev/hdb3 ???
I guess its not so much that the drive is reformatted, but i just
rewrote the file allocation table... damn! so is there any tool that
can go throgh the drive and search out pre-existing files/folders?
any suggestions will be appreciated!!
