You should always keep the old kernel in Your bootmenu to prevent such things, this is, what the construct with /vmlinuz and /vmlinuz.old is for. Nevertheless, You could boot the woody installation disk, select "execute a shell" from the menu and then mount /dev/hda1 /mnt # assuming this is, where Your root partition is cd /mnt chroot /mnt So You should get back to Your old system environment and be able to rerun lilo with Your old kernel in the boot menu.
