for what it's worth, chances are that data is still intact (unless you
ran mkfs on the partition). Fiddling with the partition table doesn't
trash the data on disk, just the partition table entry at the front of
the disk. If you put that back the way it was (even manually with fdisk)
everything comes back.
If you can't recall the partition layout, there's a proggie (gpart or
gparted or some such) that hunts through a disk looking for the
characteristic signature at the start and end of partitions then tells
you where they are
