Mandrake - Linux, diskdrake

[khat]

I have a friend who has tried to use diskdrake to mount a partiton on his drive for Linux.
Now he has managed to stuff it up, and it came back as no partitons, 19,000Mb free (20Gb drive)

what's the chances of getting it back?
Is diskedit in nortons the best way?

cheers

He used diskdrake during the installation to put an existing partition in fstab to automatically mount during boot? Hope he didn't tell it to format it.

You weren't very specific...

I am not exactly sure WHAT he did, but whatever it was, it has cleared the partition.

And he wants to know whats the best way to recover as much as he can.
