Hi!

In an unfortunate mishap, a 2Gb ext2 partition was accidentally formatted
over. It was full of important data, and it hasn't been touched since the
problem.
Is there anything that can be done to rescue at least some data? I haven't
heard of something like Unformat for Ext2, and I don't know the ext2
filesystem structures. :-(
Thank you very much for any ideas!

Bye & Good Luck!

Pablo B.
