[lug] partitions restore

[Tkil]

if you actually wrote a new partition table, you're probably mostly
hosed; the value of the old ones aren't saved anywhere.  if you've
written new partitions, then formatted or wrote to the new partitions
in any way, you're even more likely to be totally out of luck.

on the other hand, if you're just looking for specific data, you can
use `dd' off the raw disk and grep for the bits of data that are
important to you.
