  so far, basic usage of "testdisk" is showing me just the two small
partitions at the front of the disk, but now i'm in some sort of scan
mode, "Analyse cylinder", so i'm just letting it run ...

  oooooh ... suddenly sees a new Linux partition, and still scanning,
up to 61% so i'm feeling optimistic ... ooh, and another alleged linux
partition ... this will clearly take a while so i think i'll go for
lunch and check back later. thanks.
