When I was installing Mint Debian edition unlike the classic edition, the installation automatically formated my home partition when I did not specify to format.So the formatting previously was ext4 as is now. I believe the data is still there as it was a quick format. I have now booted the computer up on a live USB to prevent writing on it. Ran testDisk.Is there anyway to recover to a previous superblock so i can recover my data?
