I downloaded the boot info script and executed it. Below is the copy from the output.
I am afraid to re-start the computer.
This is where I am at. After messing around with menu.lst from both mint and fedora on my partitions, I now just want to either,
a) re-install grub and start afresh.
b) Some how fix the current issue.
I have done some research and what I have found is, in my case, I have to copy over the menu.lst of mint grub and add it to the menu.lst of Fedora.
Below is the output of the script I mentioned above.
