Same problem.

The issue is that the new kernel has a bad magic number.
So it is unloadable.

But return to grub prompt instead of grub boot menu is very unpleasant.

The following sequence save me:

linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=/dev/sda1 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic
boot

To fix the issue I have set GRUB_DEFAULT=2 in /etc/default/grub
