resolved by running # grub2-install --force /dev/sda in the recovery session. I had to use --force because I was seeing a set of warnings: warn: Your embedding area is unusually small. core.img won't fit in it. warn: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are unreliable and their use is discouraged. error:will not proceed with blocklists. I will have to resize partition 1 to start at 2048 to eliminate the use of blocklists. |
