[afnog] Need Help

[Emmanuel Togo]

Dear All
I have RedHat ES 3 running on dell power edge 4600. The machine won't
boot up I keep getting this error messages
{
Welcome to Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES
Press 'I' to enter Interactive startup.
grep: /proc/cmdline: No such file or directory
grep: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory
Configuring kernel parameters: 
[  OK  ]
iiSetting clock  (localtime): Tue May 10 09:57:36 EDT 2005 [  OK  ]
Loading default keymap (us): 
[  OK  ]
Setting hostname webmail: 
[  OK  ]
cat: /proc/cmdline: No such file or directory
}

At this point, I can hit CTRL-C and get two more lines:

{
INIT: Entering runlevel: 5
cat: /proc/cpuinfo: No such file or directory
}

I can`t do anything else at this point.

I tried to use RESCUE MODE from the boot CD, and I can get to a shell, but 
don`t know how to correct this once I get there.  I checked the /etc/fstab 
and it looks perfectly normal.  I just don`t get it.  It`s on a UPS 
but it`s still possible this was all started by a powersurge or
something.   I just need some way to 
get it to work!  I`d appreciate any advice. 

Thank you
