Grub has an entire shell available, where you can search and boot specific
kernels.
Do you remember in which particion your /boot resides? Lets suppose it's in
/dev/hda3. On grub:
root (hd0,2) # on grub discs and partitions start at 0
kernel /vmlinuz root=LABEL=/ # you can use tab for file completion (also on root (hd...))
or
kernel /boot/vmlinuz ...
initrd /initrd-...
boot

Fdisk /mbr never hurts. You may need to reinstall grub or lilo afterwards,
though. In my particular case, I never install a boot loader on the MBR
record, so I never get that problem.
