Thanks, it did - however, I've now realised that this does little more than boot me into the installation program. I think the easiest way for me to get back in would be for some kind person to make a recent 3.0-STABLE generic ELF kernel that they have compiled available to me. Is there anybody who can place such a kernel somewhere I can ftp it from? I would be very grateful!
