ubuntu /home dir deleted / testdisk.log

#1 Post by bobo2019 »

Hello,

I am running a dual boot W11Home / Ubuntu 22.04 Dell Inspiron 2n1 laptop system.

I inadvertently ran the command " rm -f /home "and in doing so it seems have lost my home directory.

I found testdisk online and installed it on my linux partition. I ran testdisk and have attached the log.

It is very long however I am sure you are expert a scanning it's contents. I appreciate in advance your reply.

The home directory lived on an ext4 about 30gb partition.

Using testdisk I have attempted and had some success copying lost files and directories however during the copy process of the home directory
I run out of memory and have to abort the copy process. I was thinking of enlarging the partition if that would not impact recovery of home directory.


cat testdisk.log

Hint for advanced users: dmsetup may be used if you prefer to avoid rewriting the partition table for the moment:
echo "0 1048576 linear /dev/nvme1n1 2048" | dmsetup create test0
echo "0 56094720 linear /dev/nvme1n1 1052672" | dmsetup create test1

I am running a dual boot W11Home / Ubuntu 22.04 Dell Inspiron 2n1 laptop system.

I inadvertently ran the command " rm -f /home "and in doing so it seems have lost my home directory.

I found testdisk online and installed it on my linux partition. I ran testdisk and have attached the log.

It is very long however I am sure you are expert a scanning it's contents. I appreciate in advance your reply.
I cross-read your logfile and I think it is a very beautiful one!

The home directory lived on an ext4 about 30gb partition.

Using testdisk I have attempted and had some success copying lost files and directories however during the copy process of the home directory
I run out of memory and have to abort the copy process. I was thinking of enlarging the partition if that would not impact recovery of home directory.
When you are talking about memory I think about RAM. Your following sentence suggests that you are lacking disk space. Please be a little bit more precise in your wording. Although the reddish box in the forum does not mention it, your posting should contain a question.
There is no support for your TestDisk version. It is outdated.

It's not possible to recover the original filenames and file structure but it may be possible to recover most of your files anyway.
TestDisk may be able to display some filenames but the filesize of deleted file will be listed as 0.
Use PhotoRec to recover your files from the free space of your partition. Be careful to store the recovered files on another partition with enough disk space.
