The kernel can't find it's rootfs.  Most likely this is because it wasn't given an initramfs.  Look in /boot and make sure the corresponding initramfs- file exists, and if so make sure it's listed in the grub configuration file.

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2013-07-02 04:48:20 UTC
Thanks

Right there is no initramfs in /boot, though I do see
/boot/<long-hash>/kernel-<version>-<release>.<arch>/initrd

Comment 3 Harald Hoyer 2013-07-02 09:38:39 UTC
you have to add grubby to the minimal install

Comment 4 Jens Petersen 2013-07-03 03:43:43 UTC
So should dracut require grubby?

Or do we add it to the @core group?

Comment 5 Harald Hoyer 2013-07-03 08:35:24 UTC
Add it to the @core group

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2013-07-03 08:50:40 UTC
Okay given that grubby is apparently on the road to be deprecated
since it does not follow http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/BootLoaderSpec/
I will add it to @core for now and hopefully rawhide installs will
start to boot again. :)

Comment 8 Jens Petersen 2013-07-05 07:02:25 UTC
Minimal install of today's rawhide boots to login prompt.
