move (mv) the files to a temp folder reboot. If it doesn't boot then you
will no they are needed. If it does boot, then you will know they are not
needed. In the first case you should at least come up to a grub prompt
(grub>) in that case you will need to reload the bootloader and then all
should be well. However I don't know if that will necessarily solve your
problem.
