Subject: Re: Formatted/repartitioned wrong disk, arrgh!

Well, I did a mkfs, so as far as I haven't erased the entire content of 
the disk.

Maybe I should mention that the ext4 partition in question is running on 
inside a ESXi with the physical disk formattet to VMFS and mounted in my 
virtual machine (Ubuntu).

It was the physical disk that got formatted by ESXi and I then recreated 
the virtual disk and made a new ext4 filesystem on top of that.

A bit complicated yea, hence why I accidentally used the wrong disk. :-(

Regards
Jesper
