Would it be possible to use a boot disk to access the info on the disk
and edit or replace conf files?

I am afraid that the partition table on your disk is fried, or the 
partitions have taken a terrible beating. The system cannot locate the 
proper partition to load the initial files from.
I hope you have a decent backup of your /home data, because this sounds 
like format and reinstall to me.
But perhaps someone else has a better, less drastic solution. Paul
