Hi Chris 
I can not tell you from where comes the "grub prompt", because it came, to me, by chance.

But if I type "help", then comes a long list of commands, including 'l' ...
However, I can not nor to print this list and even I cannot  read it, because I can not stop the scroll of the screen.

================

I tried what you suggested: 
at the boot prompt I typed rescue,  but I got: "coluld not find kernel image.."
-----------
boot > rescue
coluld not find kernel image..
----------

can you explain me ?

thank you

Interesting. UEFI systems with GRUB consider ls -l considers -l an
invalid filename so I get an error. But on BIOS systems, this command
does work.

Anyway, if you find Fedora netinstall or DVD media, and add boot
parameter 'rescue' (without the quotes) then you'll get a rescue
interface. Accept all the defaults for each page, and then at the end
when you get the prompt do

# chroot /mnt/sysimage
# grub2-install /dev/sdX     ## where X is the letter designation for your drive
# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

This installs GRUBs parts, and will also create a new grub.cfg. The
old grub.cfg would probably work so it's possible you could skip
creating a new one.
