[clug] postgres

Is there anyone who is a postgres wizard, wizardy is what I need.

My computer failed without a recent dump of the postgres databases.

I have recovered all the files in the /var/lib/pgsql  directory.

The computer is working again, same linux version, Mandrake 9.0, same 
postgres version 7.2 etc.

psql -l reports only:

         List of databases
    Name    |  Owner   | Encoding
-----------+----------+-----------
  template0 | postgres | SQL_ASCII
(1 row)

 From what I understand template0 is a database of the databases that 
exist.

Some guidance on recovery would be appreciated.
