In the grub menu, select the kernel you want to boot with and then press
'e'.  Then select the kernel line and press 'e'.  Add a space and
'break=mount' to the end of the line and press enter.  Press b to boot.
You'll get thrown to busybox.  Wait a few seconds, and then press
ctrl+d.

Alternatively, the way to update the kernel would be to find an old live
cd that you know works with the array (I used an old Dapper cd).  Then
mount your root partition to a directory with a command similar to 'sudo
mount /dev/md0 /mnt'.  Then 'sudo chroot /mnt'.  Your shell will now
behave as if your mounted partition is now the root directory until you
type exit, so you can wget the new initramfs-tools or the new kernel
package or whatever you need and dpkg -i it.
