Restoring lost data from Docker volumes

Many things might have gone wrong

  • failed Synology update
  • upgraded openWRT/friendlywrt changed the place
  • disk restoration from failed root

unless you did start your container with “--rm” and delete it , there is hope ( and even if not you may pull the brake, power off and engage e.g. testdisk )
