can just install it again?

if not, when you try to boot recovery mode, do you see eventually root@computername:~# ?

can you type anything?

can you see anything at all on your screen?

Boot from the live cd and use the recovery option. Should be no need to reinstall.
If you didn't create a seperate /home partition, I'd recommend you do so going forward to keep your data "safer".
Post back with your results, please.

Can you help with this problem?
