Boot using the CD/DVD and at the linux prompt

linux rescue

then follow the prompts to mount the files system. Drop in to the shell

chroot /mnt/sysimage
mount -a
ls /boot

ensure it has mounted

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
grub2-install /dev/sda

Have a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Grub2

Hi All.

I've just had a rather problematic upgrade to Fedora 16 on a test machine.
Now I can't boot it.

I'm getting a "root filesystem not found" problem. It tells me the only
available devices are sda1 and sda2 - so it's clearly not setting up lvm
at all.

I know how to fix this in the old grub, but I've no idea what I'm doing in
grub2 - anyone know where this goes? I've tried an "insmod lvm" in
grub.cfg, but that didn't seem to do anything :-(

Thanks!

Vic.
