I originally upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10 but it all went a bit wrong.
I've got 3 partitions
ubuntu root /dev/sda6
swap /dev/sda7
data /dev/sda5 - which I had mounted as home (not sure how though)
So I copied /etc /var /usr/local to the data partition. Then deleted the ubuntu and swap partitions. Recreated them and made a fresh install.
All went well until I tried to access the data partition. Then realised it was encrypted...
If I browse to
/media/e0eb9b14-c2f3-48f3-95a3-554d44f70e1e/russ
The contents are
Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop
README.txt
I'm still a linux amateur. At the very least it would be great to get access to the data. :)
Any ideas?
Thanks, Russ
