Inadvertant deletion of Linux Boot Disk

I inadvertently used Windows Disk Management to delete the two partitions of a harddisk which is a boot disk for a Linux system. The partitions were deleted, not formatted, and the root portion of the harddrive is labeled unallocated, while the second partition is labeled as Free Space, when viewed from Windows Disk Management. When attempting to boot deleted Linux HD I received the error: there is no such partition. Entering Rescue Mode, Grub Rescue_



I am a very basic user, but I do know that all information should basically be there and that I just need to restore the partition tables right? I have seen some posts related to this problem, but many of them involve dual boot systems, or other complications, while this is strictly only a Linux Boot Disk. I am very worried about doing something wrong.



What is the easiest way for me to do this? I am considering using the program Eassos PartitionGuru Free version to restore the drive, the solution I found on Google. Is this recommended, or is there a better way to go about recovering the disk? Do I need to do anything additional to restore the boot section of the harddrive?
