There may have been some errors, but I can't remember after juggling the
partition locations, backup files and folders.

I am accepting the idea to kiss goodbye three backups. I am going to try
to restore the original data using reiserfsck. After googling, it seems
that there are mixed experiences in restoring data using reiserfsck after 
a new linux install over an old one. I will try several commands in
console, including:
reiserfsck --rebuild-tree --scan-whole-partition <part_dev>

I'm also reading the man pages on reiserfsck, though I've read it's not
very useful.

Any hints, tips, suggestions, and comments on reiserfsck are appreciated.

Wish me luck, I'm going in.

Peter
