I feel like you have two ~½ partitions that you need to aggregate and |
| 11 |
try to access. I half way expect that you need to image the drive, and |
| 12 |
then extract the two ½s and put them back together. |

I don't know if losetup can ignore something in the middle or not. |

I would then expect that your file system in the new spliced back |
| 17 |
together ""partition to be okay. |

I /think/ that most modern file systems have addressing within the |
| 20 |
partition and not subject to physical location on the disk. As such, |
| 21 |
you should be able to mount it fairly cleanly. I would expect that |
| 22 |
files are no more corrupted than they were before the move. |
