Subject: dd does it again!

Message-ID: <trinity-9b5e3549-dd52-48e7-98f1-9f8bfd1a358a-1573440280042@3c-app-mailcom-bs04> (raw)

Hi,

I did it; I used dd and accidentally zapped all of my personal files, which were under the /home directory. This was a btrfs raid0 setup with /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdd1. I aborted the command after it had started but before it had completed. Neither directory is now mountable, but btrfs fi show produced the following output:

[root@sysresccd /]# btrfs fi show

parted -l produced:

The portion of the dd command that wrecked the files was "of=/dev/sdd1"

btrfs restore produced just:

drwxr-xr-x 1 root root   0 Nov 10 12:43 ftp
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 362 Nov 10 12:51 palsor

However, I was (perhaps optimistically) heartened by what "btrfs-find-root /dev/sdc1" produced:

# btrfs-find-root /dev/sdc1
warning, device 2 is missing
Superblock thinks the generation is 322292
Superblock thinks the level is 1
Found tree root at 649710272512 gen 322292 level 1

How do I use this information? Is there reason to be optimistic?

Thanks in advance for your help.
