Thank you.<br>
<br>
I might not need them: It turns out I found backups of much of the missing data. In my haphazard way, I had backed up my home directory 2 or 3 times in various places on another drive (with root-only access). More recent work is still missing. The drive that I erased had been used to back up when I upgraded to Karmic, and some of the MIDI files, Rosegarden files, and various audio files had been restored to my main system drive before the incident. Anything done in Ardour was on the formatted drive, and I would still like to get those back, if possible.<br>
<br>
I need to learn a systematic way to back up files to a drive separate from the one I record onto. This would be a great topic for a GSLUG meeting. It's common to hear exhortations to back up data, but much less common to hear clear explanations about ways to do it.<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
<br>
