You can boot any kernel in any old way (rescue disk, boot floppy, bootable CD, etc. and mount your filesystem. You may not even have to run dpkg: moving the links in / and /boot (+- running lilo) may be enough.

Re: Oops. New kernel will not come up
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Tim: It may be a "buggy" kernel. dpkg -i old kernel-image (the one that works). Try downloading the k.-s.-2.2.14-4 and configuring from there. I had problems with the k-s-2.2.14-3.
