OMG MY HEAD
The wife loaded windows partition up, then told windows to shutdown but unplugged the pc from the wall before windows did it's thing, so... the bootloader dissapeared, someone advised me to reinstall Lucid Lynx again so that I would get the bootloader back without too much trouble, did that, windows is still dead, don't care anymore, my Ubuntu old /home is in limbo, the space is used up but I can't access any of the files from the previous install. Thought that just having the same user account 'dave' wouldn't force the install to make a new one, I'm a fool.
I'm assuming this is the whole of the contents, but cannot see it:
dave@dave-desktop:/media/c4db98fa-0925-4511-972c-7e03e2777399/dave$ ls -al

I implore, can someone help me please?
