/proc is not a real filesystem on disk, it's
just a pseudo one created in the kernel such that looking
at the files in /proc are just the interface into things in
the kernel. when you 'lost' proc, probably your /etc/fstab
was messed up and this line got removed or corrupted in the fstab file:

none /proc proc defaults 0 0

doing the full reinstall probably wasn't needed.
