You might try an Archive and Install, I had this happen on my G4
iBook, but that was due to a bad DVD drive, that didn't install all
the system files... Sounds like a similar problem. (System files
corrupted) (Archive and install keeps all your files safe.)
To get your files off, you could use Target Disk Mode and see if your
HD's mount on another computer (using FireWire.) Good luck.
