Do you mean /lib which contained the $PGDATA is still accessable.
please try to locate the folder named "data" that contains folder like
base, pg_xlog , global , pg_clog etc.
In case such a folder is available to you , you can start the postmaster daemon
by specifying the PGDATA folder (-D) option.
please let us know if such folder is there , we can help you recoverver you data.
