[ubuntu] Windows deleted the Linux partition!

Hello everyone, I was trying to reinstall Windows 7 on a dual-boot PC, I am not sure which Ubuntu version was installed (no experience with Linux...). I deleted the Win partition in Setup and this action seemes to also have deleted the Linux one (it appears as 'free space'). I didn't proceed with the Windows install and left it as is. The pc will not boot and give the 'grub rescue' prompt. Is there a way to recover the Linux partition, since all important data is there? I don't want to recover Windows 7, just a safe way to reinstall it. Thanks for the support...
