Try SystemRescueCD to see past the new header structure and find if
there are any files left.  It's a bit user-vicious but you'll manage . .

Maybe an addendum to Mary Gardiner's story on external backups:
"unplug drive"

I have a home external drive kept at work, against moments of weakness
such as these.

Good luck.

Kevin.
