To restore the system the following is required (karmic 9.10):

- press ESC in GRUB loader countdown
- boot in RESCUE MODE
- choose to repair dpkg
- answer all questions
- wait till everything gets done
- log into console mode using username & pasword
- issue 'reboot' in command prompt

the system should now boot normally. In my case, additionally the new kernel was unable to boot correctly so I selected previous kernel version and set the new default value in /boot/grub/menu.lst (in my case default=2)

good luck!
