[ydl-gen] FileSystem Remount Readonly Issue - Help Please

[Derick Centeno]

Hi Dene:

Regarding your problem of recovering files I had recommended that you download
and compile the source for something called foremost.  Since I last mentioned
foremost here on the list, I've been working with it and found some references
which are helpful.  I thought to submit the links for those references here for
you and others to use:

All the best...
