Too late Christopher - found "package-cleanup --dupes" in the
Fedora forums (and a suggestion
from another user on the regular list) - so I tried it - now the 19
partition is unbootable :) So
it sort of solved my problem. Package cleanup ran into a bunch of what
it said were zero-length files..dunno what it
did or didn't do with them..nothing I guess. But it appears some .
many or all were essential.
Anyway I can roll back time to a few hours ago :)
A second problem Christopher is there is no history for tonight when
it happened. I guess Yum/RPM writes
the file after/during the update process, which never ended properly.
The partition still boots but ends up with the message of no /boot/init
so I get a sh-4.2 prompt on a read-only partition.
A fine state of affairs :)
