Why dont you reflash? (you do know that the FR has two boot options for flashing - one being read only so it cant be easily trashed? - see the wiki)
Your description implies that the upgrade left you with a missmatched kernel and modules, or no modules - can you flash your original kernel back (you do keep backups/versions? :) Put a distro on an SD card, boot and install the matching modules package. Just depends how much you lose with whats on the phone - easier just to reflash and start again if nothing valuable.
