Grub got hosed .. that’s a bad thing
Sep 8th
For some reason on upgrading my kernel on a Fedora 11 install just now, I found on reboot that my grub install was no longer working. I think possibly the offending laptop went into standby instead of a proper reboot (not my fault of course!)
Anyways a bit of research and use of a linux boot disk and I was able to restore grub.
- I had to boot from the Fedora 11 install DVD I originally installed with.
- I then went into rescue mode rather than going through with an install
- I asked the rescue mode to search for my local Fedora installs and More >
