I've just fucked up big time. As much as it pains me to say, /g/ is my only hope.
I have a 750GB HHD with 5 partitions.
Volume 1 (150GB)
Volume 2 (150GB)
Volume 3 (150GB)
Volume 4 Test (50GB)
Volume 5 Test2 (50GB)
Was about to install Win8.1 on Volume 4 Test but it was GPT and the windows installer wasn't liking it so I went to Diskpart to manually format to NTFS.
List Disk > Select Disk 2 > List Volume > Select Volume 11 > attributes volume clear readonly > clean.
And thus I Fucked Up. Thinking clean would only wipe the volume but it wipes the entire disk.
So now that entire disk was "cleaned" and now shows up as unallocated.
Can I somehow reenter the Volume labels/attributes?
Is there any way I can retrieve the data on Vol 1-3?

What do you think?

Take it to a data recovery place and pay $500

Is Rebuild MBR advisable?
Any tools out there that I can use to get the stuff on Vol1-3 back?

Testdisk / photorec.
That said you should instead use all this nice new free space to install gentoo.

>>59350873
immediately stop
do not write anything else to the drive
boot off of a live USB
use any free data recovery tool to retrieve data

Wew. So it looks like the crisis might be averted. The MiniTool Partition Wizards "Partition Recovery Tool" found the Volumes alright. However I have the free version so I can't restore but I looked into Testdisk and it looks promising.
I guess I only deleted the partition table?
Well I learned to better read up on what commands do before I enter them.
(Gentoo is dumb. But I am about to either try out Debian or CentOS on Volume 5 Test2.)

glad to hear it is ok
debian is comfy desu
