If you have a look in the TKLBAM docs, specifically here, you can do a restore omitting files. You will probably still need to copy across some files (from the old to the new) to get it to work, but it may make it a little easier!? (Although if you've mastered phpMyAdmin by now this probably isn't a huge help - assuming a pretty much default instance of a TKL MediaWiki, the only things that would be diferent are the DB and the filesystem).
Perhaps read through the docs fully and see if there is a way to manually restore and/or edit the commands TKLBAM executes on restore?!
If not then perhaps this is something for the devs to consider documenting (I'm sure it's possibly - just above my pay grade - especially when I don't have a current need to do something such as this).
Another thing that may be worth a try is doing a manual backup to local storage and have a dig through the backup and see what you can see...
Another thought...
