Hi Christoph,

I can't imagine how this can happen without the use of etc-update...

Please note that he is booting his system from a rescue floppy, 
therefore booting into single user mode.

Boot into the live CD.
Run e2fsck on your hda1 and hda2.
Do the chroot routine.

Edit the /etc/fstab and change the /dev/BOOT to your real device 
(/dev/hda1) and change the /dev/ROOT to your real root device 
(/dev/hda3). Same with the /dev/SWAP (/dev/hda2 most likely).
Make sure the filesystem type is what you formatted them as. e.g. 
reiser, ext2, ext3, etc.

Make sure your grub or lilo correct.

Then you can run
# passwd root
to enter your root password.
If you already ran useradd, then run
# passwd <enter your username here>
Then remove the floppy and/or the live CD and try to reboot to your hard 
drive system.
