I usually boot a rescue disk and do the following commands. chroot /mnt/sysimage/root_parition (Fedora mounts the drive under sysimage, and you need to mount the root partition) ( After the chroot, you may also need to mount the /boot partition) mount /proc mount /sys grub-install /dev/drive ( where drive is the boot disk) umount /proc /sys exit reboot
