For images, you need to make sure fileadmin and fileadmin/_temp_/ are 
writable. It sounds like these are fine if the install tool module 
didn't flag any problems.

The second thing then is to make sure that the images have been brought 
across from your previous install. I believe that the images aren't 
converted to data and then saved in the database. Instead, they are 
stored in the fileadmin/_temp_ directory and the database simply points 
to the image location.

To check this, click on the 'Filelist' module. In the middle column you 
will see a directory structure starting with 'fileadmin/' as the root. 
Under fileadmin/ you should see a directory called 'TEMP' in bold. This 
is the _temp_ directory referred to above. Click on this and you should 
see a list of the images used within the content of your site.

You can also check the 'user_upload/TEMP' directory within 'fileadmin/' 
to see if any images are saved there.

If you find nothing in here then no images have been brought across. If 
you still have access to your test install, see if you still have the 
images saved there and simply FTP them into your new site. Hopefully the 
  database references will still be active and will re-link to the images.

Hope this helps
