    Cool. You're welcome.

    PS on my netbook, the first partition seems to be a special boot partition, the last contains the recovery data. Perhaps it's the same on yours. Anyway, it's probably a good thing you didn't install grub to them. Although I guess testdisk would probably have worked on them as well if you had.
