RE: Help! I need to undelete files on EXT3

["Yves Crespin" <Crespin Quartz Wanadoo fr>]

I have found in debugfs the following command : ls -d which list deleted
entries
deleted entries inode :
<inode> (???) filename

how can I link those inode to a new filename?
how can I know with block are used by those inodes?
do ext3 use contigues block?
