I have yet to install grub2 on RHEL/Fedora but on Ubuntu update-grub is a shell script that simply calls grub-mkconfig. Getting a grub cli means AFAIK that grub cannot find /boot and/or its config file. You can use the cli just as in grub1 to boot. (On Ubuntu, the config file is called grub.cfg. I assume that running "grub-mkconfig -o grub.conf" ensures that grub2 knows that you have called it grub.conf as in grub1.) _______________________________________________ Help-grub mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub
