Don't really know about prelink, but I strongly agree with the last
suggestion: boot from a CD, or USB key, or something *other* than your
hard drive - your comments strongly suggest that you've been infected. You
*do* have backups of your configuration and data (and home directories,
etc)? If so, you might want to do a reinstall without formatting... and
then, and only then, rerun grub-install.
