   I had grub issues after an upgrade (DVD-based, though), and mine was down 
(among *many* other things) to a stuffed /boot/grub2/device.map, which I 
then had to re-create from grub2-mkdevicemap (all done from a recovery-boot 
off an install DVD, chroot'ed into /mnt/sysimage).

   I learnt (& have since forgotten, before you ask!) far more about grub2 
than I wanted that weekend ...
