A few general thoughts... I trust DiskWarrior far more than I trust Norton. Whether it would be any help in this case, I dunno. That may depend on just what major errors Norton found but couldn't fix. Like many people, I do use Norton sometimes (especially SpeedDisk); but afterwards, I always run DiskWarrior.
In the past, I sometimes partitioned large drives, as you have done. My PowerBase 180 is still set up with several different partitions, each with a different OS. But these days, I never boot with an OS earlier than 8.1, so I can always use an HFS+ formatted drive. So, for me, there seems little point in setting up a standard HFS partition. In light of that, in your situation, I might be tempted to start completely fresh: back up everything, reformat the hard drive (as a single HFS+ volume), thoroughly test the drive every which way, than reinstall or restore what's needed. That may sound like a lot of work. But unrepairable major errors make me nervous. But first I'd give DiskWarrior a crack at it.
