Hi Johnny,
thank you very much for clarification.

You said that in the centos infrastructure only one server got the problem.
What are the conditions that permit the breakage? There is a particular
configuration (hw/sw) case that match always the problem or it is random?

Thank you

I have two servers running Centos 7 on apple hardware (one mac-mini and one mac server).  They both failed to reboot a few days ago.  So perhaps whatever anti-boot bug hit Centos 8, also hit Centos 7.  I can't tell what version got updated since the system simply fails to boot.  I don't even get a grub screen. I'll have to rebuild the systems from scratch.



You should be able to boot off of installation media into rescue mode, and downgrade the grub2* and/or shim* RPMs.

-Greg

I did the downgrade on a fresh install of c8.2 but yum said that all selected packages (grub2,shim...) are already to the lowest version and the downgrade is not possibile, ending with "nothing to do".
