I tried running the boot repair CD and It tells me there is no OS detected so it cannot repair the boot img, which is how I figured out my Windows partition is unmounted. I already knew I would loose the boot.img and was prepared with a boot repair CD which also has a live linux distro (which is how I'm able to start this thread). To make matters worse after doing some re-partitioning to even out the partition size's in my Windows OS I lost the boot.img and ended up in grub rescue on a reboot.

I was having a debian squeeze and win 7 dual boot.I Accidentally unmounted Windows partition thinking I had only unmounted the Linux partitions inside of the Windows partition while trying to install a Linux distro( I managed to boot into my Windows OS from the linux). The partitions are as follows:-Ī 105 GB for Windows installation, a 170 GB for storing data (possible NTFS), another 170 GB (possibly NTFS), a 1 GB (swap space) and 20 GB (ext4 partition). Is it that, all my data is lost or only the partition table? How do we recover the data?
Now, I cannot start my machine as it says no OS found. When prompted, I chose options o and w and the reboot my machine. Instead of doing fdisk /dev/sdb (which is my usb pendrive), I fdisk-ed /dev/sda, which is my primary hdd. I am running Debian Squeeze in my laptop.
