If you can get to the CLI, at global config mode(router(config)# ) try the command 'boot system rom'. that eill give you a very basic IOS from which you can make the rest of your repairs.
If you cant get to the CLI (due to the lack of IOSimages, this link discusses changing the boot register at rmon. (search the text for "How the Router Uses the Boot Field") http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios121/121cgcr/fun_c/fcprt2/fcd205.htm#1005444
for a discussion ofgetting to rmon: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/474/pswdrec_1600.shtml
the part of interest here is the first where you enter rmon.
These links all come from Google, If you need to know more. Good Luck
