Reinstalling from scratch to remove a line from rc.local is ridiculous. You can probably use whatever you installed with to boot to a minimal environment and edit that file again.

It's also a good lesson to never blindly copy code you're given without understanding it. You could have just run that line from a terminal to see if it would work. If it turned your screen off, all you'd need is a reboot to fix it.

If your netbook has no CD drive, you really ought to get an external drive and keep it with it, or you'll just keep getting caught in catch-22 situations. You'll also need one to burn recovery media for the Windows OS it likely came with.
