As always, a good friend of mine managed to scratch my partion

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?
parted and its derivatives are pile of crap... They cause corruption
to totally healthy systems at the best of times. Don't go near them.
Use TestDisk (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk) and be happy.
