Hi Everyone,
I have a question in regards to file recovery... two days ago a
directory on one of my 4 IDE discs dissappered. it was not business data
or anything hugely precious, but it would be nice to get it back.
The drive & file system is perfectly fine, no errors.
I have 4 IDE HD's [non RAID]
Virtual Memory Virtual Memory (swap) /dev/ad0s1b Yes Yes
/ FreeBSD Unix Filesystem (ufs) /dev/ad0s1a Yes Yes
/tmp FreeBSD Unix Filesystem (ufs) /dev/ad0s1e Yes Yes
/usr FreeBSD Unix Filesystem (ufs) /dev/ad0s1f Yes Yes
/usr1 FreeBSD Unix Filesystem (ufs) /dev/ad1s1d Yes Yes
/usr2 FreeBSD Unix Filesystem (ufs) /dev/ad2s1d Yes Yes
/usr3 FreeBSD Unix Filesystem (ufs) /dev/ad3s1d Yes Yes
/var FreeBSD Unix Filesystem (ufs) /dev/ad0s1d Yes Yes
/cdrom ISO9660 CD-ROM (cd9660) /dev/acd0 No Yes
/dev DEVFS devfs Yes No
It's a 2nd level directory on "/usr1", "/usr1/AudioDrive/spoken" that
went walkabout.
I had a quick peek at 'foremost', got it installed, but have had no luck
with the config side of things. the files were almost all MP3 format,
and from what i understand they dont have much in the way of headers.
nothing has been written to that drive since.
