OK. Well, I guess what I'd probably try, in the event of this kind of disaster, is to restore using your OSX boot disk and Disk Utility. See section 5 of the User's Guide -- just follow something like the disaster recovery (but for user files), if you're trying to restore the whole thing at once.
I'd still consider some consolidation, but you know how you want to work better than I do, so if this is the optimal setup for you, go for it...
