Hi,
I did an update from FC6 to 9 exactly and my system wasn't booting anymore. So I
search on a forum and find the solution. I have to rebuild the initd image.
How I did it?
- DVD update in text mod to update packages and kernel
- then restart with DVD in rescue mod: follow instruction with chroot and mkinitrd with
the new image and then it works.
You can find those instructions in the Fedora Forum website, make a search with keywords :
mkinitrd uname
Fc9 won't boot or anything else.
BR
David

I just bit the bullet ....
1. upgrade was totally smooth - i did not do yum upgrade
... I just
burnt the ISO DVD; and then booted off CD and chose,
UPGRADE current
system ...
2. it took a long time, but it went smooth ...
3. however, I further yum upgraded (AFTER the initial
upgrade) ....
my kernel, and installed the source (developer/headers) and
upgraded
.... somewhere AFTER upgrading to the latest kernel - I
rebooted
4. boot FAILED and was stuck at GRUB in the upper
left-hand side ...
5. booted off rescue cd and did a
chroot /mnt/sysimage
grub-install /dev/sda recheck
6. I looked at the /boot/grub/ config files .. and for
some reason
peaked on the device.map .. and saw that it was changed -
the current
one looked like this:
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/sda
7. I changed it back to only this:
(hd0) /dev/sda
And I was able to boot back into FC9!
