[NBLUG/talk] Need help in "repairing" the booting of my Linux 4 server

As I shared on this forum last week, I did a bad boo boo when I 
erased my /boot/ directory without a backup - all of the things I 
caution other NOT to do.  Nevertheless, after trying to put 
things back in order, today I decided to try a reboot and I get a 
GRUB prompt.

Next I have put my Linux 4 disk one in the CD drive and have 
selected the "linux repair" mode which has put me into the 
/mnt/sysimage with the # prompt.  That is as far as I have gone 
since I am in uncharted waters.

Help!  It has found and identified that I have a Linux 
system...what should I try next?
