Then you'll need to do it yourself. Many releases ago before the current live installer method it would find and mount the system automatically. It's tedious but not difficult to do it yourself.

Should work. This will let your chroot into your actual system and poke around, hopefully find the problem, and fix it. 

I've used this on a number of occasions to rescue from a broken upgrade (although I haven't had any issues for the last several releases) or from other problems, some of which I caused :)

It's not fun but you learn a lot fixing problems like this.

May the odds be ever in your favor!

Thanks,
