Encrypted home folder - How to home folder after 10.10 reload?

Question

I am using Ubuntu 10.10 and I set the home folder to be encrypted whenever I installed my system.

Unfortunately, I forgot I encrypted the home folder and I reinstalled 10.10. Now I can't access my old home folder.

How can I get my data back?
