Thread: Everything gone....


i using ubuntu 11.04 , did not upgrade after it.
earlier, when installing 11.04, done fresh install.
had separate home partition , everything, including settings available in new os.
time, installed 12.10.
cd gave me options, namely upgrade 11.04, install alongside, erase 11.04 , other thing.
though other thing offered me select partitions, wanted replace 11.04 fresh 12.10, in last installation able carry on things , chose erase 11.04.
nothing there in 1 tb hdd.
understand have done big blender.
there possibility recover data (partitions , files etc.), didn't choose format hdd.
please, me...

i think there easy way lose separate home partition on upgrades. have remember choose "something else" @ partition step set old /home /home , file system type. otherwise defaults "do not use partition", caught me 1 time easy think if have separate home stay home. think need put caution note @ step in th install process. doesnt'happen if choose upgrade if new install or upgrade dvd or usb.
