I am running vanilla-sources 4.1.6, and so far I have not had any trouble booting it. Are you able to boot some of your previous kernels? If so, what does your '/boot/grub/grub.cfg' look like? What is the output of 'cat /etc/fstab' and 'ls -1 /boot'? If you are not able to boot any of your kernels, if you could get a hold of a Rescue CD or something like that and run the command lines above, that would be helpful.
