Over a month ago (at last kernel update) I logged a bugzilla -

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=244498

which has gone as follows -

  Description of problem:
  When yum updating kernel to latest (2.6.21-1.3228.fc7), I get the following error -

  Installing: kernel                       ####################### [25/71] 
  grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template
 
  and no grub entry is created for the kernel. 

  Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
  mkinitrd-6.0.9-7.1.i386

  This is on a system upgraded from FC6

  Something that may also pertain - when I upgraded from FC6, the grub entry was
  incorrect after the upgrade; it was still pointing at the (then deleted) FC6
  kernel.  Also, my boot partition was no longer used.  This was an anaconda upgrade.

  Ping...is there anyone out there?

  OK, it's happened again with kernel-2.6.22.1-27.fc7.


As yet, no-one has even acknowledged what is a fairly serious problem.  What use is logging
calls when you can't even see whether someone has looked at your call?

THEOREM: VI is perfect.
PROOF: VI in roman numerals is 6.  The natural numbers < 6 which divide 6 are
1, 2, and 3. 1+2+3 = 6.  So 6 is a perfect number.  Therefore, VI is perfect.
