Getting rid from this by re-installing the bootloader to /dev/sda. Anybody has the same issue?Yes. Just happened to me. "/boot/grub2/" is almost empty after the upgrade except for "grub.cfg", "devicemap.lst.anacbak", and "locale/". "grub2-install /dev/sda /dev/sdb" while booted from Anaconda's rescue mode repopulated the directory.
Not me: after each kernel update I burn a boot cd, so I could boot from this cd to a fully operating F16 without usage of the rescue cd/anaconda. I can't say that /boot/grub2 was empty before running grub2-install.
Then running grub2-install rewrote the bootloader.
There's a part of the preuninstall scriplet that deletes all ".mod", ".img" and ".lst" files from "/boot/grub2/" that might somehow be responsible.
