[ale] superblock recovery?

I have a laptop drive in a USB enclosure that has a partition formatted FAT32.  Against my better judgment I allowed a friend to borrow it to carry some large TIFF files to his office.  Now that I have it back XP and Linux can't see anything on the partition (he assures me that it worked fine with him).

Although I (fortunately) don't have anything of great value on the drive, I was wondering if there was a way I could "rebuild" the superblock without losing the data.  Worst case I will format the drive and restore the files from my backups, but I would like to know of a better way.

Thanks,
Preston
