According to git, the only change from 73 to 74 is minor changes related to plymouth. Are you sure you changed nothing else since mkinitrd ran previously? OK, there must be something else involved.

Description of problem: Boot fails. Can't find / Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mkinitrd-6.0.74-1 nash-6.0.74-1 libbdevid-python-6.0.74-1, grubby-6.0.74-1 kernel-2.6.29-0.41.rc2 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.update to mkinitrd-6.0.74 and related packages 2.reboot 3. Actual results: boot fails Expected results: Additional info: Reverting to: mkinitrd-6.0.73-7 nash-6.0.73-7 libbdevid-python-6.0.73-7 grubby-6.0.73-7 and re-running mkinitrd fixes the problem. Diffing the two initrds shows only: Binary files GOOD/sbin/nash and BAD/sbin/nash differ Binary files GOOD/usr/lib64/libbdevid.so.6.0.73 and BAD/usr/lib64/libbdevid.so.6.0.73 differ Binary files GOOD/usr/lib64/libnash.so.6.0.73 and BAD/usr/lib64/libnash.so.6.0.73 differ so the problem maybe in nash or libbdevid rather than in mkinitrd itself.
