Hi, 
I used the partedmagic cd to move the etc directory from /home/ to / . When
I reboot the system everything seems ok. But suddenly it shows an error like
this,



 (none) login: /bin/sh: invalid options -n
Try '/bin/sh --help' fore more information
INIT : Id "x" respawning too fast:disabled for 5 minutes

I think some files corrupted. Are there any way to fix  the corrupted files?

I would download Parted Magic, make a CD and boot from it.

The Linux CD installs into RAM and allows you to mount drives and, I
assume, copy or move directories. I found it useful for correcting
errors in fstab and creating directories as well as partitioning drives.

Good Luck.
