it looks like you have got a major problem on your hands you are going to have to try and salvage the data that is still on your hard drive with either lost and found or easy recovery although you will probably have to re-install the o/s if you have an o/s on your 20g drive you should be ok but try not to write to your partially formatted drive with anything until you have had a chance to run either of these apps, easy recovery pro is a windows based program where as lost and found is a dos based program if it were me doing it (and yes i have made a similar fatal error) i would try easy recovery pro you will find it here http://kickme.to/fosi but remember download it to your 20 gigg drive and run everything from there you will only be able to salvage as much of this drive as the same amount of free space that you have on your 20gigg drive best of luck if you want any more help email me
