Snow Leopard partitioning mistake

So I was in the process of partitioning my MacBook Pro and it unexpectedly froze when I switched to another application (It was about 3/4 of the way finished). After waiting 10 minutes I manually restarted it. After logging back in, everything is fine except that the 80 gigs I had allotted to the partition were no longer available. In addition, the partition is not visible either in Boot Camp or in my Disk Utility. What do?


*** Report for internal hard disk ***

Current GPT partition table:
# Start LBA End LBA Type

Current MBR partition table:
# A Start LBA End LBA Type

MBR contents:
Boot Code: Unknown, but bootable

Partition at LBA 40:
Boot Code: None (Non-system disk message)
File System: FAT32
Listed in GPT as partition 1, type EFI System (FAT)

Partition at LBA 409640:
Boot Code: None
File System: HFS Extended (HFS+)
Listed in GPT as partition 2, type Mac OS X HFS+

Backup everything! Now!

Try making a small partition and see if that returns the space. Other than that its reformat and Migrate back in.

Thanks! I already have everything on an external, so no worries there. Keeping my fingers crossed that everything clicks back to normal!

Well, it's not letting me create a new partition. Specifically, it said:

This disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved.

Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a Single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot Camp Assistant again.

So looks like a reformatting after all. Thanks for the help all the same!
