When the system first boots, just after the POST beep, you should see a
blue screen with the different kernel options.  This is the grub boot
screen.  You can use the cursor keys to move the select highlight to the
kernel you want, and then hit enter.

But be warned, with nVidia, I found that it's compile & install script
would install stuff that only worked with the kernel it was built
against.  If your graphics doesn't come up when it did before then this
maybe the same problem for you.

Good luck

Just because they are called 'forbidden' transitions does not mean that
they are forbidden. They are less allowed than allowed transitions, if
you see what I mean.
