Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Try booting directly to KDE multiple times, I am not sure what has changed but I need to update the deb. I noticed on mine, it boots about 1 out of 4 times???
Once booted up, remove the deb, if you can't get it to boot, I can maybe walk you through removing it from your flash partition. It should boot though, try several times.
Sorry for the issue...

--------------------------------------------
open xterm
become root
mount your boot from SD partition (say /disk - you would have to make the dir)
mkdir /disk
mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /disk
or (depending on which card slot)
mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /disk
dpkg --root=/disk --admindir=/disk/var/lib/dpkg -r kde-boot
This will remove it from the SD partition cleanly
Now:
umount /disk
Reboot its done
LINUX RULES!!!!!!!!!

Hello,
Thanks for the info. One thing I did notice though and not sure if it helps but when I boot from the SD card it says booting from mmcblk0p2, which I beleive is the internal card?
However when I followed your instructions above to get it removed I had to use the command mont /dev/mmcblk1p2 /disk to get it mounted?
Seemed strange but I dont really know enough to comment
Cheers for the advice though, worked a treat
