In such case you did not really start booting yet. It looks that you are not getting stage2 loaders and/or grub menu. > If I use a livecd and mount my boot > partition I see what looks to be a correct set of files including > grub.conf and the vmlinuz of for the new kernel. Then you can reinstall grub the same way it was installed in the first place and hopefuly this will solve the issue. > which package could be the culprit? You are not far enough to talk about packages unless something scribbled over your boot sector. Do you have more than one disk? Maybe something confused BIOS about disk ordering? It is difficult to imagine what that may be. Even in such case writing a new boot sector should help. BTW - did you power down before trying to reboot? If you have a shadow copy of BIOS in memory and this got messed up somehow this may cause what you are seeing.
