You should speak to your datacenter about that (presuming that you've rented your server from one) and have them fix it as they haven't installed the OS boot loader correctly, in this case GRUB. In the meantime, you'll have to copy an existing entry in /etc/grub.conf and modify it for the new kernel, but you need to know what you're doing when you do that before you attempt to reboot your server.
