Could try using an ubuntu live CD to boot with .
(I have a knoppix one but the idea is the same)
in rescue mode you tell it what partition you normally
use as / (root)

example
root=/dev/hda2

after booting 
then you can reset your kernel and boot loader as you
need them.

reboot and test.(without CD in drive)

if it were me then I have a backup copy of my kernel
in the
/home/user/build/kernel/ subdirectory
because I always compile my own kernel.

There are prebuilt kernel-image packages you can
install
with apt-get install

good luck
