Yes, on another machine

I tried to recover the partition table for 1 disk.
I worked, but there are plenty of issues.

Disk /dev/sdd: 232.9 GiB, 250059350016 bytes, 488397168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x00000000

Device     Boot     Start       End   Sectors   Size Id Type
/dev/sdd1  *     24981075  36258704  11277630   5.4G  7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sdd2        36258705  46508174  10249470   4.9G  7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sdd3        60030976 206895103 146864128    70G 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sdd4       206895104 488396799 281501696 134.2G  f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sdd5       206899200 290785279  83886080    40G 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sdd6       317001728 405065727  88064000    42G 83 Linux

As you can see this table is wrong

But cannot mount /dev/sdd6 for example.
Disk /dev/sdd6 - 45 GB / 41 GiB - CHS 5481 255 63

The harddisk (45 GB / 41 GiB) seems too small! (< 60 GB / 56 GiB)
Check the harddisk size: HD jumpers settings, BIOS detection...

The following partition can't be recovered:
     Partition               Start        End    Size in sectors
>  Linux                 1889  40  8  7370 226 24   88064000 [Backup]
