ok its possible that ur boot directory has changed
boot linux in rescue mode
i.e bot it from CD & type

linux rescue
at boot prompt after that check in /etc/grub.conf file & check wheather it points to correct root partition

if u dont know abt where ur root partition is :
then give this command at the cmd-prompt

#fdisk -l

Enjoy:
