Recovering reformatted ext2 partition

[joe@a750.a750 (Joe Nahmias)]

Hello all,

	I seem to be in a bit of a bind... I was trying to install
Debian [GNU/]Linux to replace my old Linux distro, and wanted to carry
over the partition that housed /home... However, I messed up and ended
up reformatting the partition I wanted to save during the install
(instead of just plain mounting it on /home)... Does anyone know of a
way to recover this partition??  In particular, there was a large ~85MB
file on this partition that I would very much like to have back, is
there any way to do this??

Thanks in advance for all your help!
