Partition table recovery program

I've seen various people ask about recovering their partition
tables after they were corrupted somehow, so I thought I'd post
a note here. A collegue managed to destroy his partition table,
so I thought I'd write a little utility that tried to recreate
a partition table. From what I can tell, it seems to figure out
where FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, UFS, and EXT2 partitions are. If you
are interested in using it, it can be found at:
http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/people/chaffee/fat32.html
I've put both a static binary and the source distribution there.
Hope somebody finds this useful.
