[OCLUG-Tech] file recovery

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to recover some files which were accidentally deleted, then the
trash was emptied as well. Nothing else was saved on the computer since
then, and I have been trying to recover them with the debugfs command. I can
see a number of deleted files, but not the directory the files were in,
which was also deleted.

How can I go about recovering these files or the entire deleted directory.
I'm not sure how the dump command works, or any other command that will
recover them. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04.

Thanks,

Ellen
