So yeah, about as bad as I thought.  It at least appears that files from my homedir exist to some varying quantity in /lost+found, though I have no idea if they're corrupted or not.

Current plan of attack, I believe, is to gather as much of the "important files" as I can off of the system (probably copy them into windows using some ext2 reader program - is there a better way?), then reinstalling Gentoo.

Sigh.  This will happen after I finish 212 first, of course.

Stupid AFS.

Edit 1122: It seems that I'm extremely lucky, as I was able to recover all my photos, my ssh key, pgp key, most of the classwork I've done in the last year.5, gaim logs, etc etc. Going through lost+found directory by directory is a bit painful though - I don't recommend it. There's also still about 16000 files in my lost+found, for which I have no idea what they are - seeing as I've already gotten most of the "important" files, I'm not sure I care enough to try to filter through the rest.

Hopefully this is the last schedule-post...

This is my current registered schedule, with 33-658 and 79-351 (the conflicting courses) currently waitlisted at 4 and 48 respectively.  Hopefully I'll get off at least one of the waitlists, but if I get off neither, I still have 42 units, which is fine.

So I'm happy that I actually managed to get all the classes I wanted, and relatively good sections, too.  (I'm really digging the late starts on M/F - woo weekends!)

Edit 2036: off the waitlist for 33-658, which makes my schedule this. Grad-level physics courses for the win?

As I noted in a few previous posts, I entirely hosed my system and need to start over. (This is probably a good thing anyway, as the age of my Gentoo system was starting to introduce a variety of weird bugs.) What should I install as soon as I've got some free time (where free time is given as "done with 212")?
