Partially wiped etc

Today, while cleaning up some backup files and other cruft from a system,
making it ready for production, I accidently wiped out part of /etc.
The system would not boot (obvisouly). /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow aare
still in place. Looks like I stopped it around the "i"s /etc/group is
missing.
I attempted to "upgrade the system" with the same CD I installed with
hoping this would cure the problem and replace any missing files.
This did not work, although it did complete sucessfully.
I am now getting the error:
Cannot assemble drivers for root pci at 1f,4000/scsi at 3/disk at 0,0:a
followed by a cannot mount root on pci at 1f,4000/scsi at 3/disk at 0,0:a
I am pretty sure I am down to just one or two bad files, but which ones?
Any ideas or usefull ssuggestions? I would prefer not to have to wipe the
box and re-install the OS.
