If there where more than one partition on the disk the problem isn't as hard though. I've had great success previously with gpart which you can find at http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/user/76201/gpart/. The program tries to guess how the partition-table looked by scanning the disk for known filesystem-signatures, and will often be able to recreate all partitions following the first one in cases like yours.
