After a recent crash I'm trying to find all my mysql files for my forums and am not having any luck.

They use to be in the following directory: /var/lib/mysql/layitlow_com

But now that directory does not exist (Rackshack attached my old HDD to the server and I mounted it by typing "mount /dev/hdb3 /old" but I can find no /old/var/lib/mysql/layitlow_com directory. There is a bunch of files under the drive under lost+found but when I do a search for one of the common forum files like "find / -name ibf_posts.MYD" nothing comes back.

So am I basically out of luck and need to start kicking myself for not backing up more often?

Oh, and I'm pretty much a know-nothing when it comes to Linux, so please bare with me.
