I used Disk Warrior with great success many times in the OS9
days; not sure if they still are around under OSX.
I have also had success with "Data Rescue" from Prosoft
Engineering. It doesn't 'fix' the disk, but scans the disk and
copies off files it finds to a second disk (so you need another
disk of equal or larger size). Takes a long time but recovered
stuff from a severely damaged disk.
Hope that helps!

Livecode.tv event now ongoing! Also not what you wanted to hear i guess...
You probably dropped the partition table. I think all data should be
recoverable with a decent recovery software, tho i haven't used any of those
for ages. Commercial ones come from 20 bucks upwards, maybe someone can suggest
a good one?
