after the dmesg it just says :

unable to find /etc/rc
enter complete path to shell {press enter for default /bin/sh}

after that i have no other option to use sh... uugh

then when i get into that theres nothing in the /usr dir and my 13 gig=20
hdd isn't monted (it should be mounted on /usr) i try the mount command=20
and it cannot find a valid block device.
