Thanks for your advice. File confirms the identities of files I was unsure of. I've searched every file in lost+found with a few different tools: gqview, nautilus, lde, find with file. Although I found some of my files in various directories in lost+found, there are a couple of directories whose files are nowhere to be found there. I had about 4 GB of image files in one directory. du shows that lost+found is only about 0.5 GB. Is it possible in an ext3 file system to find files outside of lost+found? I am guessing that it is not possible since lde shows these directories as empty then I am out of luck, e.g., 0x00000000: pictures 0x00097D35: -rw-r--r-- 2 179 .jedrc I can retrieve the .jedrc file but there is nothing to be found of the pictures directory in lost+found. -- Gary Parker Cayuse, OR -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
