Is "that" the previous post with "pciehp.pciehp_force=1"? In that case,
you have two possibilities:

1) Hit the <Escape> key while Grub is displaying that prompt. With the
first entry selected, hit the <e> key to edit that entry, down arrow to
the "kernel" line, hit <e> key to edit that line, and type the above
without the quotes at the end of the line, hit <enter> to accept the
modified line, then finally type <b> to boot with that entry.

2) Boot, start a terminal, 'sudo vi /boot/grub/menu.lst' and add the
above without quotes to the kernel line; reboot.

Put a memory device into the card reader. If it's opened automagically,
all is well.
