I can reproduce it with your grub.conf... but... I can also reproduce it
if I change my working grub.conf so that the file named in the kernel
line doesn't exist. Eg
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.22-rc7 ro root=LABEL=/
works okay, but if I deliberately change it
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.22-rc7x ro root=LABEL=/
then I get your error. The difference is that /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-rc7
exists and the ..rc7x file doesn't.
straceing grubby with the ..rc7x bogus edit shows...
access("/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-rc7x", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
access("/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-rc7x", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
write(2, "grubby fatal error: unable to fi"..., 55grubby fatal error:
unable to find a suitable template
) = 55
Therefore... does /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7 exist on your box?
