"gpart" is the tool for that. If nothing works any more, you can use Knoppix or something. Then just start gpart on your disk, let it grind away for a while, and then check the (usually several) partition layouts it finds for one you recognize. It's been a while since I used it but AFAIR it can restore a certain MBR layout you select. If not, you have to recreate it in fdisk. cheers! Matthias -- I prefer encrypted and signed messages.
