For anyone who can help, I don't know anything about my hardware and the

have to crack open the case to read the hardware, I'm probably dead in
the
water, because if I power down I am guessing I'll lose everything. I've
already put up a swap and native partition, and they are the only ones on
the drive anymore. -- help needed.
You really need to start from scratch with MacOS installed. Can you
beg, borrow or steal ;-) a MacOS8.6 disc? Once you have that you can
boot from the CD, format your hard drive, install the bare minimum MacOS
and do a net install as per the link I sent you previously.
Do you have a broadband connection?
