Does it have to run in a GUI? Having done a similar thing once, I recommend
testdisk. It should run fine from within a terminal, but it's not a GUI
program. It also exists for Windows. It should be included on most rescue
CDs, but if not, a simple "apt-get -q install testdisk" from the Ubuntu live
CD should work. Your situation reminds me of the time I accidentally typed
mkfs instead of fsck and had to use photorec (also part of testdisk and not
limited to photos) to recover my files. What a mess!

Hello I did a stupid thing, I accidently formatted my partition on my usb
drive haven't written anything to the drive sense I had this happen
is there a orca friendly partition recovery program that can try to recover
the data?
I know of a windows program but want to get this done in linux
