yes, I did

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

then

grub2-install --boot-directory=/boot /dev/sda

no issues reported, but it doesn't fix things.

In rescue mode, I also tried uninstalling are reinstalling the kernel,
and no change.

I think that grub2-mkconfig must be done after grub2-install...

        I just did a yum update and got the 3.7.9 kernel for F18.  Upon

        blinking
        cursor in the upper left.  The system just hangs there.

        I booted the install disk, rescued, did a chroot to the system
        image and
        remade grub2.cfg and reinstalled grub2 (with grub2-install), and
        still
        the same issue.  I even yum removed the kernel that was just
        installed
        and redid grub2, and again, nothing.

        Any ideas on how to fix grub on this system?


    Hi Mike,

    By "redid grub" you mean "grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg"?
