Hi, I did an upgrade with yum for my kernel, and now I can not find grub.conf. I did not check before the upgrade, so it might not be there before the upgrade. According to the ls -l command, the grup.conf is link to /boot/grub/grub.conf, but I do not see it under boot. Also, if I issue vi /etc/grub.conf, it ask if I want to create a new file. What is going on? Please help. Thanks.
[root@localhost ~]# ls -l /etc/grub.conf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 May 5 14:04 /etc/grub.conf -> ../boot/grub/grub.conf [root@localhost ~]# ls -la /boot total 3428 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 5 18:07 . drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 May 5 19:37 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 55445 Apr 7 19:33 config-2.6.11-1.14_FC3 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 985168 May 5 18:07 initrd-2.6.11-1.14_FC3.img -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 754309 Apr 7 19:33 System.map-2.6.11-1.14_FC3 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1658853 Apr 7 19:33 vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.14_FC3
If your system still boots properly, it's likely that you have a separate /boot partition and that for some reason it was not mounted when you did the yum update that installed the last kernel, and it's not mounted now. Can you post your /etc/fstab? What happens if you do:
# mount /boot
