<p>Thanks, I forgot that the utility has this capability. <br>
</p>
<p>This reignites hope of recovery without a third party. <br>
</p>
<p>Re: my question to Warner about preciseness, now I realise, the
answer is almost certainly "Yes", because the manual page for
gpart(8) notes that the 'restore' argument/command, which does not
affect the content of partitions, can be preceded by destruction
(-F).=C2=A0</p>
<p>Also, thanks to the people who responded privately. <br>
