testdisk. Another program to look into is gpart. Both are available
on Knoppix 3.8.2.

But before you use either, you might want to image the drive as a
backup. That way in the off chance that either testdisk or gpart
totally hoses your drive, you still have the data to try again. To
do that, use partimage, also on Knoppix.
Good luck and let us know how things go.
