Rescue disk has no dpkg. It's the same as the boot image you get in the Debian 2.1 single CD. I tried copying /lib/* and /etc/ld.so.cache from the rescue disk to the hard drive. Now the kernel can find init, but it still gets an error loading shared libraries - undefined symbol: stderr - and panics (unsurprisingly). Same with rescue 2.2.12 kernel and my 2.4.18.
