GRUB Legacy support has been dropped. Read the archlinux.org front page ("GRUB legacy no longer supported 2012-07-20").GRUB Legacy counts "(hd0,0)" as the first partition of the first drive. So (hd0,5) is the equivalent of /dev/sda6.Wait... You can't boot from a LiveCD either?

I have my FC11 system set up to automatically download and install updates.
I had to reboot yesterday because of one of these updates. It seems that this update messed up grub. When I rebooted I only got the flickering cursor.
So far I have tried the following using the rescue disk and executing chroot /mnt/sysimage
fdisk -l gives me this result :
I have multiple HDDs and one contains Ubuntu, other OSs and GRUB v2(?).
Anyway, I usually select through the BIOS boot menu which HDD I want to boot to and I noticed a problem when booting to my drive with GRUB on it.
I recently upgraded from Fedora 15 to 16 via the desktop dvd. Now the grub menu includes old entries from Fedora 15 kernels, even though they no longer exist. I tried commenting out all Fedora 15 kernels from "menu.lst", and checked "grub.conf" as well. The FC15 kernels still appear in the grub boot menu though. Does anyone know where is I may look to get rid of these entries?
I have an old hard disk drive (the ribbon one) that I see using usb has a boot partition but don't see anything else.
So, I thought to try to boot up the the disk (which is running legacy grub) over usb from grub2 to check it out.
But, google has failed me.
My grub menu went through rather extensive changes after the last update. It started booting to my old 12.04 entry by default. Where this gets confusing is that there is no longer a 12.10 entry in grub.cfg.
I installed and tried the grub-cfg as mentioned in How do I change the grub boot order?
I recently upgraded to 12.04. After booting I only got the grub shell with no kernels loaded. I tried running boot repair. It told me I use GPT and would need to create a new grub-boot partition. I did this and ran boot repair again successfully. However I now get only a blinking underscore on boot and don't even get a grub shell. Any ideas?
I installed debian on a newly created partition(hda6) of a Mac Pro server machine.
