Restore /boot? (wiped out by ubuntu install)

I had a working Fedore 8 on /dev/sdb. On unused LogVol's on sdb I installed ubuntu. However, ubuntu (live version) *insisted* on reformatting /boot (/dev/sdb1). I did not go back and save the original Fedora 8 /boot files (vmlinuz-, etc) thinking I could easily get them back somehow, but can't determine how.

Is there a way to restore the Fedora 8 /boot contents (w/o a complete reinstall) so it will run again?
