Flash another kernel. If you were smart enough to do a nandroid backup, restore it. Otherwise copy a kernel to the SD card.

I don't believe that you can just flash over a king kernel over the hydra, would have to do a full wipe. Download a rom that you see here to your liking, put it on the SD card, then boot into recovery (hold vol- & power button), and install.

You're going to need an SD card reader and transfer that way. And post this in general next time.

You can flash kernels over kernels. No problem.
