Where do you want to put it?  If you have another machine
you can let rescue mode bring up the network and either
nfs mount shared directories from the other system or
use 'rsync -essh ...' to copy them over the network to
a remote ssh login.

If rescue mode was able to find your partitions and
mount them normally and you followed the instructions
with the 'chroot' command, everything should appear
in it's usual locations from your shell prompt.  That
is, if your files are in your home directory it would
be /home/your_login.
