You are making too much fuzz about "emergency" and "maintenance"... we
tried this once and the world didn't fall over.
The only reason why we don't have it now is the  move to grub2.

If you know 1) what a kernel is 2) that booting a different kernel
might fix your boot issue then you should be able to open the boot
menu.
