Same problems here. In my case it had even more annoying consequences. Even with a reconstructed grub.conf file (I think I reconstructed it correctly), the machine won't boot. It simply stops at "GRUB". I need to use now a boot disk. Do I need to "revalidate" my grub configuration, somehow? (Something in the spirit of 'lilo -v') I don't know how to get this repaired. I am a little bit afraid to update the kernel now and discover that it only makes things worse... Daniel *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 60041 *** I am glad to see that the problem has been identified but it does not solve the consequences of this bug for me: I have a non working GRUB because of an unsuccessful upgrade of the kernel (my / partition was too small). I tried to recreate the grub.conf file (and I think I did it right) but still, I can't reboot the machine. It says 'GRUB' and freezes. What am I supposed to do? Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
