    Please if any one can help. Can I recover my files from a corrupted installation of linpus using the AAO recovery usb? I need to recover a writer document :-(

    The recovery disk will destroy all data on the internal drive. So unless your files are on a SD card, don't do that.

    You can create a bootable linux USB stick and copy the files with that. Damn Small Linux comes to mind. unetbootin can also help you make bootable usb sticks.
