Looks like it didn't install the kernel. Did you select one of the
GENERIC kernel at install time ?
It's easy to fix: boot again from install media, go to the utility menu
and configure network. Then get a shell, mount the root partition on /mnt,
ftp (or NFS or whatever you want) kern-GENERIC.tgz, and exract it in /mnt
