I wonder if this is possibly related to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448343
I have seen that recently on a machine which was upgraded from F7 to
F9.  A reboot brought 'GRUB> ' prompt and that was it.

Luckily enough this was an i386 installation and getting
grub "manually" to boot was easy.  After that it was possible
to install grub once again and further booting was not an issue.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=246830
shows troubles one would get into if that would be an x86_64 setup.
