Do the following:

- boot the system with -b added on the LILO command line
  (for example, boot: linux -b)
- Now in maintenance mode, mount the root file system r/w:
  # mount -n -o remount,rw /
- Edit /etc/inittab
- look for the line with /etc/init.d/boot in it
- Replace that with:

  # Boot-time system configuration/initialization script.
  si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS

- save the file
- umount and reboot:

  # mount -n -oremount,ro /
  # reboot -f

Something hosed your /etc/inittab during the upgrade, but I have no idea why.
I think you had a buggy version of sysvinit installed by accident before..
(there have been some troubles in the 2.72 series)
