Does /usr/lib/modules contain the dir
4.2.3-200.fc22.x86_64 ?
Does /boot/grub2/grub.cfg have a menuentry like this one:
menuentry 'Fedora (4.1.10-200.fc22.x86_64) 22 (Twenty Two)' --class
fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os --unrestricted $menuentry_
id_option
'gnulinux-4.1.10-200.fc22.x86_64-advanced-3e3ce754-4cf3-4673-9449-a42929c3ed31'
{
Note that 3e3ce754-4cf3-4673-9449-a42929c3ed31 is my disk's uuid for the
root partition.
