I would go into rescue mode, go to a console, and chroot into the installed system, and there hand-install the right kernel (and remove the other one). for yaboot, you can either simply run ybin, which should do the right thing if yaboot-installer did his job correctly, or use the rescue menu item. If the d-i folk had not been so much preocuped with their witch-hunt, this kind of problems would not be happening.
