Hello, I was deleting some files leaved by MacOSX on the MyDocs folder, so I typed rm -rf ._*, then I've tried to edit the line to replace the _ with a T (to deletes .Trashes) and I've accidently lost all the hidden files and folder. Can someone please send me back at least .VolumeIcon.icns and .n900.ico ? (I dont't know if other files were important or not)

Thank you very much

I think you should reflash, it serves you right for using such reckless commands, and you won't know for sure if you have put back in the essential stuff.

As far as i know, the reflash won't touch the /home/user/MyDocs partition (btw the last time I've reflashed, all my files in this folder where still present)

You should reflash with Vanilla image......
I used: RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.41-1.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin

yes I could reflash, but I think it's brutal just for less than 10 files deleted in a home user folder.

Is it just possible for anyone to send me at least the two icon files ? thank you

You can use the flasher to unpack that bin file and then losetup it and mount it. And then extract whatever you want from it.

I just don't know how to mount any of these files, and I don't know what file is supposed to contain /home/user/MyDocs.
the only file I see in the list that represents the filesystem is rootfs.jffs2, but I think it's for the root partition, not the user space partition...
