    One of the best tools for partition recovery is TestDisk:

    TestDisk - CGSecurity

    You can find it on lots of liveCDs such as the Parted Magic LiveCD.

    Just to be sure, that is a lowercase L in fdisk -l not a 1 or is that just a typo on your part?

    fdisk - l:

    Disk /dev/sda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7296 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
    Disk identifier: 0xcccdcccd

    Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
    /dev/sda1 * 1 7111 57119076 83 Linux
    /dev/sda2 7112 7296 1486012+ 5 Extended
    /dev/sda5 7112 7296 1485981 82 Linux swap / Solaris
