[RFH] Partion table recovery

As always, a good friend of mine managed to scratch my partion table by 
cat'ing /dev/full into /dev/sda.  I was able to push him out of the way, but 
at least the first 100MB are gone.  I can probably live without the first 
partion, but there are many partitions after that, which I hope should 
easily be recoverable.

I tried parted, but it's not working out for me.  Does anybody know of a 
simple partition recovery tool, that would just scan the disk for lost 
partions?


Thanks!
