Killed /home installing Fedora 7 with Ubuntu

[Res]

I think as others have said you are screwed, but take a look at 
magicrescue, it has helped us recover data that a colo customer once 
deleted, much the same as you, except our backups were nightly and this 
guy spent the ebst part of all that day redesigning his site and 
toolsets, only to rm it all thinking it was his old stuff :)
We managed to recover 80% of his data.

The copy I have is http://support.ausics.net/magicrescue-1.1.4.tar.gz
incase you can't find it, but this is a few years old so there's bound to 
be a later (better?) version by now.
