Oh man, I'm totaly screwwed up. Due to an stupid typo I lost al my data of an partition.
I wanted to make a 'backup' with the command dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/dev/hda6 but I typed hda5. I interrupted the procces immediatly, but I can't c any data in /dev/hda5 anymore. Is there a way to restore it??????

Of course. Simply restore your most recent working backup of /dev/hda5.

I was busy creating backups, unfortunatly I didn't backup that partition

No, there's no magical way to put data that used to once be on a drive back unless you have some sophisticated NSA-style equipment that could do it.
