Clearly the boot sector's been stomped on somehow at the very least.
Try sudo dd if=/dev/sdb count=$((2*16384)) | hexdump -C | less which should show a binary dump of the first sixteen megs of the drive. Hunt for NTFS in that listing in less by typing "/NTFS" and hitting enter. If it finds it that means the partition might still exist and might still be accessible if you can create a partition on the disk matching it's exact placement.

Hi there,
I'm wondering how to display a disk label (why not edit it but I don't need that yet).
I found several commands on forums like disklabel and diskinfo but I can't find them on my system and don't know the package they belong to.
