[ILUG] Data recovery

Quick question:

I backed up my data on my laptop about 3 weeks ago, upgraded SuSE 9.3 to 
SuSE 10.0 OSS and wasn't too happy with the result.

So last night, I installed the full version of SuSE 10.0 choosing to set the 
installation as a new one rather than an upgrade.

When I went to copy my backed up /home diurectory back on, I discovered to 
my horror that the backup had not been succesfull!!!! The CD was blank :(

So, is there any chance that the files may still be on the laptop???? I'm 
not sure if the drive was formatted as part of the new installation or not.

Any help that anyone could give would be MUCH appreciated.

Mike
