Alfred von Campe spake the following on 9/24/2007 1:59 PM:
Today I decided to install all the latest updates (including the -06
kernel). The "yum update" seems to have run just fine (no errors),
but when I rebooted the system it just sits there with the word "GRUB"
in the upper left hand corner. I booted from the CentOS 4.5 install
CD into rescue mode, did a "chroot /mnt/sysimage" and reinstalled grub
and the latest kernel, but it still gets stuck in the same place.
It's not that I can't boot the new kernel; I can't even get to the
grub screen!
I'll answer my own question. In addition to re-installing grub, a
"grub-install /dev/sda" was required to get the system to boot. I
thought that reinstalling grub via yum/rpm would take care of it, but
apparently it didn't. Lesson learned, panic averted.
Alfred
That is what most of us probably thought you meant when you said you
re-installed grub.
