With much help from
_sps_, our server is backed up and has been put back together properly.
We haven't done some of the upgrades we were talking about, since
_sps_ ran out of time and is taking the backups and DVDs with him when he leaves, but its all working well now.
There are a few issues with version skew between some of the twinned partitions, but I can worry about that later. For now, its all good.
