hi ya
assuming your disk is intact
fdisk -l /dev/hdd
and add/guess which partitions belong to which mountpoint
mount /dev/hdd1 /mnt/test
ls -la /mnt/test to guess if its /var or /usr or /home
umount /mnt/test
...
when you're all done ....
fdisk -l /dev/hdd > /etc/safe-place/rc.parition.txt
cat /etc/fstab >> /etc/safe-place/rc.partiton.txt
( a [cr/h]acker might wanna casue you grief w/o doing rm -rf )
c ya
