An hour ago I had a fully functioning machine. Now I just get the word
"GRUB" in the top left of the screen. Something has gone wrong in the
last hour or so.
Here's what I did.
* Earlier today I ran a "yum update" which pulled in a new kernel. I
didn't reboot the system at that point.
* Later on I installed mediatomb and started playing with that.
* After a while I got bored and stopped the mediatomb daemon.
* At that point I realised that my network connection had dropped.
* I tried to restart the network, but it claimed that the device
(eth1) was already in use.
* So I decided to reboot. Kill two birds with one stone, try out the
new kernel and hopefully unstick the networking.
* At which point I discovered that something was broken in the GRUB
configuration.
I can boot the system using the rescue disk and everything seems ok
(as far as I can tell). So I think it's just something wrong with GRUB
- perhaps caused by today's kernel upgrade.
Has anyone else seen anything like this? And, more importantly, does
anyone have any suggestions of ways to fix it?
Thanks,
Dave...
