Description of problem: I tried updating from F15 to F16, but after update grub2 died and I couldn't boot into F16. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.99 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install F15 without a boot loader 2. Install grub2 as a boot loader 3. Update to F16 Actual results: unbootable system Expected results: bootable system Additional info: This part of the %preun script is guilty - it doesn't check whether GRUB2 is already installed and active. # XXX Ugly rm -f /boot/%{name}/*.mod rm -f /boot/%{name}/*.img rm -f /boot/%{name}/*.lst rm -f /boot/%{name}/device.map
