Who says there is no undelete in Linux?
by mindcircus
Well, not if you are using ext3! Whilst everyone is expected (yes, now I expect everyone to have back-ups of their data after featuring several back-up utilities already) to have backed-up their data, there are times when the file or folder you have accidentally deleted is more useful than your back-up. Yeah, it happens so instead of being left with a 10K back-up document instead of 200KB, undeleting seems to be the next best thing – or the ONLY thing.
This is what Carlo Wood realized when he was put in a situation of having deleted data accidentally. Recovering it seems to be impossible but thanks to Carlo's work, undelete on ext3 file systems is now possible. Carlo Wood documents his experience and proves that you can now recover deleted files. Great job, Carlo! I salute you!
