I recently upgraded my version of grub, but either I forgot, or the RPM
script failed to re-run the /boot/grub/install.sh script.
The result was that my system wouldnt boot. I couldnt boot the install CD in
rescue mode to fix it either because grub refused to run, either before a
chroot or after.
(Note, my /usr was reiserfs on a /dev/md0 working perfectly up to this
point).
I had to make up a lilo.conf and run lilo to get my system to boot. Ive now
found that grub has a simple text mode menu, and I would deinstall grub if I
could.
