Mount you root partition with a boot disk
mkdir /mnt
mount -t ext2 /dev/<whatever> /mnt
Then CD to your /etc directory and check out what happened
Has the whole rc.d directory been erased? Maybe it was renamed?
Maybe you erased rc.sysinit or just chmod it to a non-executable status.
This should give you a direction.
P.S. Dont fouget to unmount your partition before rebooting
umount /mnt
Hope it helps...
