The Parted Magic Live CD has Test Disk as well as a bunch of other Disk 
Maintenance utilities. 

You might want to get this in your repertoire for posterity - like those 
incidences when you can't boot into ubuntu to actually install or run the 
TestDisk utility, or better just fixing the disk without detaching from 
affected system and attaching it to the system with the utility.

Life is the educators practical joke in which you spend the first half 
learning, and the second half learning that everything you learned in the first 
was wrong.
