Dear all, I have updated/upgraded the machine that was freezing all the time to Rawhide using Fedora Preview Iso + Updates. There is only one gotcha. Grub is not working correctly? When starting up machine. IT does nothing it stays at GRUB and stays there. I can successfully boot it using livecd's to boot the partition. [students@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/fedora-release Fedora release 9 (Sulphur) [students@localhost ~]$ uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 #1 SMP Thu May 1 06:28:41 EDT 2008 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux [students@localhost ~]$ I have already run grub-install /dev/sda1 from Fedora 9 Preview DVD to make sure everything is ok. Is there anything that looks incorrect in grub.conf below. BTW: Machine does not freeze anymore. Maybe it did not like Fedora 8.
