Question : Is it possible to retrieve data lost after fsck ran

Hello,
my OpenSuse damaged my partition table (on its own!), as described in my other post:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Linux/Administration/Q_23356239.html
Now my problem is as follows: I ran fsck on that partition, but all the contents of my home folder did not show up in the lost+found folder. Is it possible at all to retrieve any of that data anymore? Also, I am wondering why exactly the contents of my home folder did not get recovered.

Thanks,
Papapara Tudu

Journal updates can not munge a partition table. Anyway, you halted the system before you turned it off didn't you? I have always felt it rather dangerous to turn off a disk that is actually writing - you never know what it might do as the power fades.
I would just do a plain old "fsck -f" and hope it finds more. But it may well not.
