That means the kernel is loaded and it's trying to start the boot-up,
but is failing.  That seems like a corrupt kernel sort of issue.  Did
you make a boot floppy before you tried the updates?  Can you boot
with the KRUD CD by selecting "rescue"?  Once your file-systems
are mounted you can get back to your old system by doing chroot.

Maybe you can try re-building, or re-installing the kernel RPM and
then try building a boot floppy, restoring the lilo.conf, etc...
