Andrew,

The good news is, you're not alone. I went through the exact same thing
that you're describing on one of my installs.

The bad news is, I still don't know how to fix it. I wound up
reinstalling, and in the install, setting it to not try and detect
network connection.

I'm thinking if you can get your hands on a copy of Knoppix (or another
bootable GUI cd), you may be able to use that to edit to appropriate
init file, provided someone can point you to the right one. I'm using
Knoppix as my recover cd now, cuz it's just so darn cool.
