Stuck on HTC Logo at Boot + Possibly missing partitions topic

With all the buzz about Android 5.0 lately I hastily decided to flash across the latest and greatest. So of course it turned out I needed S-Off for something (because it never gets to be easy) so after running various hacks in an attempt to get S-Off I noticed that I couldn't boot into Android. So I opened up the recovery and tried to sideload across a stock HTC KitKat ROM. When I turned on the sideloading function I got the following error: "failed to open driver control: No such file or directory". And this wasn't the first or last error that I would get. for example, if I tried to access my /sdcard partition I would receive the error message: "E: Can't mount /sdcard". To me this seems like either my partitions have been deleted or corrupted.
Other directories I also cannot mount are:

• /data


• /firmware/radio


• /firmware/adsp


• /firmware/wcnss


• /sd-ext

Note: I am running PhilZ touch as my recovery.
