loss of data - tool for disaster recovery? data recovery?
Posted: Sun Jun 22, 2008 5:44 pm
Hi there,
I pressed the 'reset' button yesterday and was not aware that when doing so, all my data would be lost. I am connecting to my Qnap 209Pro from a Mac. Now, all my data is gone. So, I would like to have a tool running that scans for deleted data.
Is that possible? Is there a tool / software to do so?
how do I know which Linux version Firmware 2.0.1 uses?
Linux, kernel 2.6.x, tar.bz2
Linux, kernel 2.4.x, tar.bz2
Linux i386 RPM
Linux SRPM?
how to boot up from a USB? how much space is needed on a USB?
e.g., http://www.sysresccd.org/Sysresccd-manu ... _USB-stick says
.... Of course, you need a computer that supports USB, with almost a free USB socket. You BIOS must be able to boot on USB hard disks, and it must be defined before other devices in the boot devices order.
Is the Qnap 209Pro bootable from a USB? what are the steps until reboot regularly?
After my loss of data, I won't try out anything unknown now.
Has anybody experience with any of these tools like starting up from a USB? I really have no clue how to do this but one thing is sure, my data is lost and I am at panic. Look at this site:
http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/tools.htm
check out Linux data recovery tools.
Your urgent help is very much appreciated.
Also, for future versions I think the reset button should contain a reconfirmation button that says that the user is aware that not only system rights are reset but that entire data is going to be lost.
thanks,
George
