yes, i only removed that extra 'c' from the /etc/fstab file and now
automatically the /boot contents are there. But a new problem is now there
which is:
There are three titles sections coming automatically while rebooting and in
/grub/grub.conf, for fedora 11, it showing two options and while logging in
to any one i come to the same desktop. here is the output of /etc/fstab:
#
# /etc/fstab

#
# Accessible filesystems, by reference, are maintained under '/dev/disk'

tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
tmpfs /var/tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
and i removed the extra 'c' which was there in the 8th line just after 1 2.
now the output of df yields:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root

tmpfs 1025444 0 1025444 0% /var/tmp
and the output of /boot/grub/grub.conf (which now is there) is:

Here, after updating the system (from the GUI,
System---->Administration--->Software Update), i see in above two titles of
Fedora, and why it is so? but the no. is bracket for two are different,
respectively:
'title Fedora (2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i586)'
'title Fedora (2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586)'
i am confused why it is so.
thx
