Terry,
I made the same mistake. All I had to do was uninstall both the alsa and
kernel upgrades, then reinstall the old binaries from CD. I may also have
had to verify that lilo.conf was set up correctly, and that any soft links
to the linux kernel in /boot were correct. I believe there is a vmlinuz
soft link that is connected to the actual kernel file, which is something
like vmlinuz-2.2.17-mdk21.
