Re: grub recovery

Hi,
I suggest that first you will make sure that the update of windows did
not destroy the grub entries of Fedora.
You can do it by booting a Fedora LiveCD, then mount the system using
"chroot /mnt/sysimage" (there are a lot of guides about it) and look
at /boot/grub2/grub.cfg.

Another way is to cat this grub.cfg from the "grub>" prompt (this is a
bit more complex maybe, also for this there are guides).

Assuming there are the Fedora entries, the reason can be that the
"default=" entry is changed to boot into Windows and also hide is set
(hiding the grub menu).
In case of doubts I would suggest posting the contents of grub2.cfg
here/in pastebin + link here.
