Right this either means that something nasty has happened to /etc/environment or your boot process is getting suck because of another problem and not even getting to the point that the running PATH is set.
Can you tell me what the output of the following looks like-
cat /etc/environment
You should get something like
LANGUAGE="en_GB:en"
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games"
It's the PATH= bit that I am interested in
If it looks similar to mine then I suspect the problem is earlier on in the boot process and we are just looking at a symptom.
