How to recover data from a partially overwritten partition
- by shredder12
By mistake, I configured a 900GB partition to be part of a 50GB raid. The sync is complete and my understanding is that only the first 50GB of the bigger partition is overwritten. How do I recover the rest of the data?
When I try to mount this partition by identifying it as ext3, it mounts only the 50GB overwritten space.
This partition was earlier divided into various logical volumes(all ext3 filesystems) through LVM.
Any suggestions?
