Topic: undo " set disklabel"?

hello,

I think I just destroyed my harddisk while formatting a NTFS partition. It all went smooth, i explored the program, and then, I set a disklabel, didn't read the dialogs very well, and i destroyed my files. Is there any way to undo my stupid action?

Greetings,

Hadez

bad idea sad
You may try to use testdisk, which is on the livecd. Open a terminzl and type "testdisk". You 'd better have a look at the testdisk's doc first !
