Latest update killed booting.. at "grub>" prompt
Added by Ryan W over 2 years ago
How can I select the kernel to try and boot the system again? I can't seem to find the right command to even list what kernels are available to boot?
This all happened after I updated to 3.0.3, I rebooted and bam, I just get a "grub>" prompt.

The only thing I can think of is I upgraded the syspool zfs/zpool versions after 3.0.3 came out. After rebooting it seems grub cannot read the syspool disks. (I get unrecognized format trying to set the root disk in grub "root(hd0,0)".

Oof that's rough.
I ended up blowing away my syspool and reloading and getting the system up to date again. Though I'm not about to reboot if it's gonna blow up again. (I rebooted after the system updates and that's all fine?? it's weird it manifests itself after its back in use)
