General :: Recover A Deleted File Using The Ext3 File System?
Jan 10, 2011I used the ext3 format when I formatted my partition prior to installing Ubuntu10.10. I had accidentally deleted a file and began the process to get it back. It wasn't critical but helpful to recover the file. To make a long story short I ran into to some unexpected road blocks. I tried to use PhotoRec to get the job done but with no success.
I'm just looking down the road in the event I might have to recover something important.If it would be better going back to the Fat32 file system I would rather do it sooner than later. Just as a side note I am dual booting between linux and windows.
General :: How To Shred Already Removed File On Modern Filesystem?
Aug 25, 2011Consider the following:
mount | grep home
type reiserfs
rm -Rf /home/user/over_9000_little_and_big_super_secret_files/
# oops, I should have shredded it instead.
How can I properly and securely "initialize free space" to ensure that no additional info can be restored restored by digging in free space (Preferrably without stopping or disturbing the filesystem much.) Is dd if=/dev/frandom of=/home/qqqqq really secure for this (tails, journal, etc.)?

Feb 16, 2011Say I have a file that's downloading (from a source that's hard to re-download from), but accidentally deleted from the filesystem namespace (/tmp/blah), and I'd like to recover this file. Normally I could just cp /proc/$PID/fd/$FD /tmp/blah, but in this case that would only get me a partial snapshot, since the file is still downloading. Furthermore, once the download completes, the downloading process (e.g. Chrome) will close the FD. Any way to recover by inode/create a hard link? Any other solutions? If it makes any difference, I'm mainly concerned with ext4.

General :: .disk File Compatibility - Recover The Files ?
Dec 18, 2010I removed my Ubuntu install and decided to replace it with Debian. I backed up the /home directory onto the Windoze installation on the other hard drive. That was a "home.disk" file. Now, I copied the file over to the Debian hard drive, and can't figure out how to recover the files. Is this possible to do in Debian?

Feb 1, 2011I'm trying to recover movie files from my TNT receiver hard drive but it corrupts its FAT32 allocation table (crappy cheap device...)
Using dosfsck is useless because the correct file length is the cluster length, not the (shorter) one in the table, and dosfsck only proposes to shorten the file, which I won't do.
Question: how to recover a file using the FAT cluster chain instead of using the stored length in the FAT table?
General :: Recover Files From Ext4 File System Overwritten By New Installation
Jul 3, 2011My main hard disk died and I replaced it. After installing windows in a small partition in /dev/sda, I thought I will try linux mint and went for it. (I need windows to play AOE, but ubuntu is my primary OS)I didnt see the options properly or some distraction, I choose the "install alongside windows" option probably expecting it to install it in the unallocated partition next to the windows installation. I had completely forgotten my second internal drive /dev/sdb which has the backup data. Linux mint went and installed itself on that drive.
Is there a way to recover individual files from the second harddrive. Now if I boot or open it through live cd, all I see in the linux mint file systems. I want to aleast recover my CV/resume from the second drive. The second drive is a single ext4 file system The old drive is completely dead, it doesnt even get recognized when I attach it to SATA.

Jul 5, 2011I work for a company that builds computers for military applications. We have a unit that is using Redhat Enterprise Linux Server using a CF Card for the HDD. The CF Cards were prepared for us by the customer. We just got them in however, upon testing it will start to boot but it looks for a serial ID plug which we do not have, so when it does not find it, the TERM signal is sent and it shuts down. so we emailed them for instructions on how to get around that. they told us to remove a certain file using the rm command.
The only problem is that we still cannot get redhat to boot, therfore I cannot get to the linux terminal to even use the rm command.
Is there any way I can rm <file> in the GRUB or any other way?
FYI I am not very familiar with linux but I do have a decennt understanding of general programming/scripting.
Debian :: Recover A Locked File ?
Jul 6, 2010I'm having one of those days, and managed to delete some virtualbox disk images. But the virtual machines are still up and running just fine. So the deleted disk images still exist somewhere.
Is it possible to recover these files? Since they are in use and locked by Virtualbox I guess they still are completely intact and fine on the disk, but that they will be permanently deleted once VirtualBox stops.

Jan 4, 2010I have an Acer Aspire One running NBR 9.10. A few days ago it "went wonky", wouldn't boot and would just seem to start and then shut off before getting to the logon screen. I managed to boot from a USB stick and run check and fix in Gparted. It found a slew of errors in the file system. Unfortunately, it still won't boot, now it just hangs. I assume some of boot files were damaged.
Now I have two problems:
1. Is there a way to repair the damage? Or just wipe the disk and start over?
2. I need to get my e-mail off of the hard drive. I can mount the drive after booting from a USB stick, but the thunderbird directory is locked. Is there a way around this?

Feb 25, 2011This has happened twice to me. I'm editing a filename on the desktop, for example, I have a part of the name highlighted and press delete. Inadvertently, I press delete again, but with nothing highlighted. The file is deleted, but is not added to the recycle bin (possible bug).
I believe that is what is happening. I cannot seem to recreate it purposefully on my work computer --I had done this at home this morning while sans-coffee.
Is there a way to recover the files?
