Subject: [gentoo-user] unformat a partition
Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2006 12:15:24 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bba6100b0603160915g68258591yfc0ac0b148ead838@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

i just accidentally blew away my ntfs partition with the gentoo
install cd (formatted hda1 instead of hdb1) is there a way to unformat
if it was just done? like undo the format information? i formatted
with ext3.  ordinarily i wouldnt mind, but i have some VERY important
information on there and a ton of pictures i cannot lose (originals). 
i can probably use getdataback when i get home just wanted to know if
there was another way since im still at the prompt on the install cd
now.

thanks (bangs head on wall)
