I've burned a portable Ubuntu ISO onto a USB and booted it up on Macbook Pro 2017. I've selected the "try Ubuntu" option.
After using it for ~36 hours, I click "Suspend". Now, when I boot up the laptop again into Ubuntu and selected the "try Ubuntu" option, I see that it's a brand new copy—my 6 files on the desktop are no longer there.
What happened? How can I recover the lost data?
casper-rw
or a partition with the labelcasper-rw
, where installed programs tweaks and personal files are stored. An alternative is to install Ubuntu into a fast USB pendrive (installed like into an internal drive, but into a USB drive). See this link, Try Ubuntu (Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, ...) before installing it
