"Why this does not work with ext3 

In general, ext2 and ext3 are compatible file systems: You can mount an ext3 
fs as ext2 and even use the ext2 low level utilities like debugfs. However, 
ext3 behaves in a different manner in one crucial point: If a file is 
deleted, its inode data are removed, too. Especially, the list of data blocks 
is lost; so it is not possible to recover any deleted file. "

Is this true - or can datab be undeleted from ext3?
