"GRUB" in the top left of the screen. Something has gone wrong in the
last hour or so.
Has happened to many people before:

Here's what I did.
You installed a "kernel" update, which runs /sbin/new-kernel-pkg
which in turn reinstalls GRUB via grubby. The kernel package is
not the culprit, however. Something at run-time has changed your
system environment in a way that confused the GRUB installation.
How exactly remains to be found out.
Has anyone else seen anything like this? And, more importantly, does
anyone have any suggestions of ways to fix it?
You need to reinstall GRUB just once more. Use rescue mode,
for example. I think above bz ticket gives hints.
