Dear all , there is an Ext3 partition which have been mkfs.ext3 by mistake , there are very few inodes available in file system now but tools like lde shows that majority of data is still available on disk , the problem is that how its possible to take back disconnected ext3 blocks in filesystem as file ? how can i put them in lost and found ? do you know any solution ?
If you have run mkfs.ext3 while the partition was mounted, then an fsck might put stuff in lost+found. It happened to me once when I mistyped the disk name (hda5 instead of hdb5). That was several years ago so I don't remember whether it was ext3 or ext2.
