Hi Gary, 

you could brute-force your way into running a restore by doing lots of
echos answering bconsole's restore questions like so (from memory): 

( echo "restore"; echo "mod" ; echo "3"; echo .... ; echo "yes") |
bconsole

of course you'd have to keep track of changing client and fileset
index numbers as your dir config changes. 

You should be able to remove the "ghost fileset" using mysql and
deleting the appropriate table row in your bacula db. 

HTH, 

Uwe
