[SOLVED] Error 15 file not found following upgrade to FC11

almus · 07-14-2009, 08:31 PM

I (foolishly) opted for the the preupgrade to Fc11.
Now I can't boot as I get an error 15 File not found.

I get the same error for whatever kernel I try to boot
in grub.

I have a CD to boot from and can get into rescue mode.

Help.

How is you're disk layout now ?
Ext3 and ext4 ?
GRub can not read from ext4 .

Thanks.

I am all set. It turned out that
FC11 preupgrade upgraded kernel but did
not correctly change grub.conf
and menu.lst. I did a list of
kernels in /usr/src/kernels and
they were different from
the list that was in grub.conf and
menu.list.

I manually changed the .conf and .lst
file and then the computer booted.

I was going to suggest a look at your menu.lst/grub.conf but you got it
