I deleted it, created two new partitions (first for Windows, second
for Linux) and restored Windows using tools in the hidden/IBM Access
partition - if there is more than one partition (not just free space
after the first), it asks whether to use the whole space or just the
first partition during the restoration process). (This was on R50e.)

If you can trick the restoration tool to see the partitions in 
non-disk order, it should work.
