can we recover data after re-installation of centos7 but it was ubuntu server previously? And the data contained was also formatted during installation, would it be possible to recover it completely?

#2

Thread moved to the "*Fedora/RedHat and derivatives*" sub forum.

If the partition containing the data was formatted, you probably should investigate specialized data recovery tools. The forums at centos.org are a good place to start.

The more that system writes to that drive, the less the chances for recovery.
