Some time ago, I moved the folder /usr
to its own partition.
Before this it had lived in the /
partition which has a btrfs filesystem.
Accidentally, I formatted my /usr
partition from my Windows XP OS.
Using an Xubuntu LiveCD, I can see there are three snapshots, two of which contain my old /usr
.
I am wondering if I can recover my /usr
from the snapshots taken by btrfs?
Can I just copy the contents of the snapshot to /usr
?
