gparted is always the first choice in situations like these. The trick is to realize that if you recreate the partition table the way it was everything just comes back (assuming no destructive write to the drive meanwhile, like mkfs.ntfs...) so all one needs to know is where did the old partition end? gparted can go hunting through a disk looking for that info -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
