So yeah, about as bad as I thought. It at least appears that files from my homedir exist to some varying quantity in /lost+found, though I have no idea if they're corrupted or not.
Current plan of attack, I believe, is to gather as much of the "important files" as I can off of the system (probably copy them into windows using some ext2 reader program - is there a better way?), then reinstalling Gentoo.
Sigh. This will happen after I finish 212 first, of course.
Stupid AFS.
Edit 1122: It seems that I'm extremely lucky, as I was able to recover all my photos, my ssh key, pgp key, most of the classwork I've done in the last year.5, gaim logs, etc etc. Going through lost+found directory by directory is a bit painful though - I don't recommend it. There's also still about 16000 files in my lost+found, for which I have no idea what they are - seeing as I've already gotten most of the "important" files, I'm not sure I care enough to try to filter through the rest.
