I did something similar a number of years ago.  If you know the layout
of the old partition table, you can simply create a new identical table
and everything should be good.  If you don't know the layout, there are
tools that can scan the disk looking for the beginnings of filesystems.
I found one such tool on sunsite.unc.edu (no, wait, that's
metalab.unc.edu... err, no, ibiblio.org.  Silly name changes.)
