Is this a new installation ? It seems that  your installation has
not completed satisfactorily or is incomplete. init is the mother
of all processes, and you can proceed no further. It  seems  that
your /etc/inittab is either missing or corrupt.

If yours is a new installation, please re-install with defaults.

If you have valuable data in it, boot through a stand-alone linux
distro, mount your root partition and write a fresh inittab. I am
not very sure about the MDK set up myself ... some  MDK  type  on
our list could help here.
