Try rebooting and when your system gets to LILO, select failsafe. In 
failsafe, hit Shift "I" to get the interactive mode, and at the proper 
steps do not load "dm", or "XFS". You'll end up at a console. log in as 
root, and run "startx" to get the root users desktop. Open konqueror 
and make sure that your backed up files are safe, then edit your user 
in userdrake, log out and log in as that new user.

Restore your files from the backup or point your new user's home 
directory to the new location. You may need to change the permissions 
for the new user to match the user ID number of your old, saved 
content.
