<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=755202520-26122004>Oh
boy, this is gonna be a tough one. :-) I had a look on my box as the root and in
my /boot directory there are no further subdirectories, or any files named
grub or grub.conf for that matter. I did install grub to the MBR, that I
remember now. I don't know where my grub.conf file has gone; the file finder
simply doesn't find it. I did a bit of searching on the web regarding this issue
and one site mentioned an "update-grub" command which is to recreate the grub
config file. It's a real shame though Fedora doesn't have that particular file.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=755202520-26122004>So the
bottom line here is, I have a system that boots, it has kernel 681 on it
(somewhere!), but I don't have the config file for grub. Perhaps there is a
grub command that recreates this the config file? (Do I first need to create a
folder called "grub" in "/boot"?). Since I did some reading on grub reconfigs,
etc. I would also very much like to create a bootable diskette first -- any help
on this would also be greatly appreciated. :-)</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
