Can't boot Fedora 14
I Installed Fedora 14 about 2 weeks ago and was just settling into using it more or les permanantly and had to turn of the power to do some maintenanace. When I rebooted I got the grub> prompt
As I have already shut down and rebooted several times over the last couple of weeks, I could not se why this happened, so I rebooted and stiull got the same problem.
Things I have tried:
grub > root
(hd1,0): Filesystem type is reiserfs, partition type 0xa5
find /grub/stage1
Error 15: file not found
find /boot/grub/stage1
Error 15: File not found
boot
Error 8: Kernel must be loaded before booting
find /grub/grub.conf
Error 15: file not found
setup (hd1)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... no
Checking if "/grub/stage1" exists... no
All of the above are things I have found exploring the internet
Any help would be much appreciated before I toss out yet another Linux distro.
I am currently using a 64 bit ASUS P75P55-M motherboard
Thanking you in advance

You can try booting your live cd and do a file system check using gparted running as a live session on your installed partition of Fedora since
Improper shutdown can corrupt a Linux File system sometimes. It is easy to do with any Linux Live CD. Just make sure the partition is unmounted before doing the file system check to keep from damaging the partition even more,had to turn of the poer to do some maintenanaceLinux Registered User # 475019
