photorec.. its the last resort, and you can recover some information
with it, but prepare yourself for lots of pain :)

Anyway, this blind uuid generation is something crazy, and foolish..

If you only have 1 ethernet interface, 1 hard drive, and so on, you
need it for what?
your system will have always the same name attributed( you only have
one option.. )

You see that in the embedded space,
When majority of boards only have 1 ethernet port, but you got names
like 'wlanxyzwqrlng'..

Its absurd,
It doesn't even validate the amount of attributes of same type, it
blindly use "cryptographic names"..
RaspberryPi ones ...are just crazy..:'ENXB827EBA8D596'

This is a security flaw for humans, as you can't distinguish sh**T
with this naming's..
And probably will commit  a serious mistake some day..
