Fedora 16 kernel panic

[Brian Johnson]

Thanks Kevin, and sorry...I should've had that at the ready.

I'm assuming you want the entirety of /etc/grub2.cfg? If not, I apologize
for the length....

  load_env
fi
set default="0"
if [ "${prev_saved_entry}" ]; then
  set saved_entry="${prev_saved_entry}"
  save_env saved_entry
  set prev_saved_entry=
  save_env prev_saved_entry
  set boot_once=true
fi

function savedefault {
  if [ -z "${boot_once}" ]; then
    saved_entry="${chosen}"
    save_env saved_entry
  fi
}

  insmod vbe
  insmod vga
  insmod video_bochs

}
