[Gllug] CentOS boot problem

[James Courtier-Dutton]

Hi,

I have a CentOS 5 machine. It was booting fine a few days ago.
I did a "yum update" today and it installed various updates, one
included the kernel.
When I rebooted it, it fails to boot now, and comes up with a grub
prompt, no menu, just a prompt.
It will not take any keyboard input.
Has anyone seen this before with CentOS.
I have never seen it before with debian or ubuntu.

I suppose I will have to boot from CD and repair it, but I think it is
very bad if "yum update" kills a box so badly like this.

Kind Regards

James
