you are missing /boot.  you need to copy that back, and rerun installboot.
all these files can be found in /usr/mdec.  and man installboot

the other files in / are a .profile and .cshrc, and a symlink /sys to
/usr/src/sys.  possibly a small colony of old/backup/testing kernels. :)
none of these are particularly important.
