Partial Recovery of ext4 drive, what next? (Linux)

#1 Post by foggys916 »

I did post some of this on the Ubuntu forums, but this is not really a Ubuntu issue.

So my daughter accidental formatted the 250GB drive in my HP machine, with a version of CENTOS using a logical volume (?). The disk had version 11.04 of Ubuntu on , with ext4 partitions.

I ran testdisk and recovered the /homes partition (separate logical partition) and another partition labelled DATA (with, funnily enough, data in it!!). However I’d really like to recover the main file system (MBR - not important) as I’d also put a directory in there with files in it.

Testdisk seems to have discovered the original Windows Vista structure (not needed) and obviously the CENTOS boot partition.

I’ve attached the full testdisk report and the graphics of the GParted programme (supplied with Ubuntu and ran from a LiveCD version of Ubuntu). The GParted programme shows the "unallocated" partitions which are the ones I would like to recover, but I assume testdisk is seeing the CENTOS boot partition and the old Windows Vista stuff and is unclear as to what is wanted??
