I'm sure this must have been discussed somewhere along the way, but I'm so
mad at myself I can't think clearly.
I ran an upgrade this weekend and have 3 drives. sda, sdb are / and /home.
sdc was reserved as a full copy of /home.
Disk druid marked sdc as an unallocated lvm PV but never formated it, only
changed the partition table so I'm sure the data is still there.
How would I go about resetting it to ext3 format without losing all the data
so I can mount it?
Is there a was to recover the data natively in linux?
Any howto's, pointers and blatent hand holding will be useful as the spousal
unit is PO'd that I lost 3 years of pictures.
thanks
Andy
