I would guess that "upgrading" killed your libc.

You can try to boot with -a (ask) and when the kernel asks for the
init program, tell it to run /rescue/init (assuming you have installed
the rescue set).

Otherwise you probably need to boot from a different medium (e.g.
an USB stick with the installation image).
