What tools?

Start here:

And you'll want to read and understand the Internals/Physical Storage chapters of the manuals.

From past experience recovering data in a variety of circumstances, I'd recommend getting what you can easily then writing the rest off as lost. Chances are you may never get everything in a consistent state, particularly as you've had disk problems which caused this in the first place.

PS - Don't forget to cc: the mailing list when you reply. There are plenty of people who know more than me around.

PPS - Make sure you have a backup of all the remaining files before you begin.

PPPS - Don't forget to put a proper backup strategy in place once you've recovered what you can.

Good Luck!
