When you say "in /data", do you mean the directory that contains the
directories "pg_xlog", "base", "global", "pg_clog", etc ?

Did you back up and restore the WHOLE data directory at once? Or did you
restore only parts of it?

When restoring, did you:

- Stop PostgreSQL
- Check with "ps" to ensure no 'postgres' or 'postmaster' instances
  were still running
- Move the old data directory out of the way
- Copy the backup data directory from your backups
- start PostgreSQL

?

Have you checked the file system and disk to make sure they're OK?
