Actually teTeX's file are not gone, they are moved in the same directory 
as the old system, in an invisible directory /Previous Systems/Previous 
System 1/usr/local/teTeX. The same happens to Virex, should you have it, 
which is moved to /Previous Systems/Previous System 1/usr/local/vscanx.

But in any case it's probably safer, and faster, to reinstall teTeX 
afresh using Gerben's installer. Be sure, however, to retrieve the local 
customizations that you may have done, from the invisible directory 
/Previous Systems/Previous System 1/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local 
where they have been moved, and to transfer them to the new installation 
before erasing this /Previous Systems directory.
