Sorry for the lag in my reply, I thought someone more informed would 
have posted with more to offer.

Did you get the errors captured yet?

If you hold down all 4 cursor buttons on the back at boot  you can boot 
into an alternate kernel /usr/games/.doug which will let you limp 
along, I think.  I've not tried it myself.  That kernel is on the /ext2 
partition.  There might be some limitations to working with it, I think 
I've read that this is the case, but you hopefully have a backup copy 
of the working real kernel that you can just cp back.

HTH.  Do share what you end up trying, I'm sure that (I at least :) 
will refer to it sometime in the future.
