Installation and Partitioning of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Server
Yesterday I accidentally erased the SSD (256 GB) Ubuntu was installed on.....
What do I have to do to get the original partitions back?
I mean can I use during the installation process the option "Guided - use entire disk" and the /boot/efi and swap partition are created automatically or do I have to choose "Manual" and define the three partitions manually?
On the one hand I suppose "manual" because I don't believe that Ubuntu would create a swap partition itself. On the other side I can not imagine that I created nvme0n1p1 /boot/efi manually last time, knowing nearly nothing about it...
former partitions:
/dev/nvme0n1p2 227G 110G 106G 51% /
/dev/nvme0n1p1 512M 3.4M 509M 1% /boot/efi
/dev/nvme0n1p3 ca. 8 GB (used as swap partition)
former fstab:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
UUID=b3180ade-90e1-47ad-92d4-01973cab36fd / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
UUID=C7E0-530A /boot/efi vfat umask=0077 0 1
UUID=aedfb0c6-09cf-4573-9e22-6f0630e7d3c5 none swap sw 0 0
Devices during installations
# / was on /dev/nvme0n1p2 during installation
# /boot/efi was on /dev/nvme0n1p1 during installation
# swap was on /dev/nvme0n1p3 during installation
