You may still be able to get your stuff back. If the "Preserve users and network settings" is not checked, then a lot of the data from your home directory ends up in the "Previous System" folder. Dig around in there and I'll be you find what you're looking for. It's worth a shot.

I had ticked preserve users and settings when i first did it. I did an
archive and reinstall without preservation and it brought the achine back to
life but still with access for the new user it created to use the apps
already installed. Only things we lost were a few mp3s.

Thanks,
