Aye, the problem being that the inode isn't deleted, the empty file
occupies it. To be honest, i think you're probably scuppered. If the
file was text, you've got a change, if not, i'd say it's game over, but
i'm not an expert, so don't give up hope just yet -)

Well, i wish you the best of luck, i've been there.

Steve, posting this to the list as well because i'm guessing you didn't
meant to privately reply to me, and others may be able to tell you that
i'm wrong, hopefully -)
