I hoping someone can help... I had a scsi going bad. So, I took it out... but I got it confused with another and pulled the wrong one. Doah! To makes things interesting I then proceeded to re-write the partician table w/ fdisk -- effectively making my /home go bye bye. Ok, no kidding.

The disk was using ext3. Is there a debugfs, etc. for ext3? There must be a way I can dump the old journal or someother way to recover my files. Anyone know how? Obviously, thanks incredibly much in advance if you can help.

Help! 8O
