Change the default in /boot/grub/grub.conf to a kernel that was working :)
default=0 is the first kernel, 1 is the second and so forth. Change default=X where is the line of the kernel that you want to boot
[root@localhost ~]# cat /boot/grub/grub.conf
# grub.conf generated by anaconda

# initrd /initrd-version.img
