[ale] superblock recovery?

I've been trying to recover some deleted partitions under NT4 for a
while and though have recovered the partitions, I find no data except
under the primary, i.e. not under extended.

Anyone have any experience with this type recovery and if yes, what am I
missing ?

Thanks,

Courtney
