Please briefly describe the interaction that caused you to file this
ticket:
My laptop running Fedora LXDE spin was damaged. I removed the hard drive
and placed it in an enclosure. When I plugged it into my desktop, my /home
file did not appear, though my boot files did. I went on the channel to
ask for assistance to locate my /home drive to recover a manuscript draft
I worked on for 5 years and am close to submission. I had earlier versions
on other drives but not the latest. Anvil, with tremendous patience,
knowledge, and skill, helped me recover these valuable files and
consequently help me save a lot of work. I am not a sophisticated Linux
user, and if it was not for his help, I would not be able to retrieve this
data.
Please note other IRC nicks that are involved in this interaction:

Please describe what action or positive change could be adopted based on
this feedback:
Users looking to Linux can be aware that there are users who have strong
knowledge, skill and integrity on the Fedora IRC. Consequently, Fedora can
acquire more confident users. We should all follow Anvil's example.
Any additional notes or logs:
I thank the Fedora channel for creating a place for people like Anvil to
reside and assisst others.
Thanks for your feedback!
