Your system was most likely rebuilding the initrd, and you interrupted
it leaving you with a broken initrd.

Try booting off a rescue disk and chroot into the install, and run:

dracut -f -v

to regenerate all the initrds.

Also, you don't need to reinstall the kernel but just do a 'yum
update' to get everything up to the latest release.  The shim package
with the fix is the latest.

Jonathan et al:

On the assumption that all the updates should now "just work", I did a from-scratch reinstall of a minimal Centos 7 system starting from netinstall and added software that I've always added (perl, dhcp, mariadb, etc). I did not exclude shim, etc in "/etc/yum.conf". After all the updates, the system was NOT bootable.

I repeated the install and updates, but this time including the line in /etc/yum.conf
  exclude=grub2* shim* mokutil
and ended up with a usable system.

This was not the result I was hoping for.
