I was playing around trying to upgrade util-linux from sid, and managed to delete sysvinit. Now I can boot, but none of the init scripts are run, and I don't know how to go on from there (ie mount all the partitions including proc, get the network up...). The init scripts still appear to exist.
I've got the sysvinit deb (and util-linux) on a shared exchange partition. I'd be extremely grateful for some advice on getting sysvinit reinstalled. Thanks Rory
