Hi all,
Just wanted to let you all know that Testdisk was my friend in this situation. I was able to get all of my lost partitions back so now everything is as ut should.
Many thanks!
Christian

Recuva worked for me. It's hit or miss, whatever you do, pull the drive,
make an image, and do your recovery on the image.
