Description of problem: On kernel versions 3.10.13.101 and 3.10.14-100 Dracut reporting :- /dev/fedora/root does not exist /dev/fedora/swap does not exist /dev/fedora/fedora/root does not exist How reproducible: Using HP DL140 G3 Boot up selecting newer kernel Older Kernel 3.6.10-4 working fine.
This might well be a duplicate of bug 1018272 Can you get any logs off of the system? Dmesg output would be beneficial.
What type of storage is hosting the installation? Are you running RAID?
The HP DL140 G3 is using a HP Smart Array E200 SATA Controller
The system is bombing out into Dracut command line. The above information in the previous post is all there really is within '/run/initramfs/sosreport.txt' that is relevant. There is a binary under '/var/log/<big hex string>/system.journal' but I cannot work out how to get files from Dracut to a USB memory stick.
(In reply to Aaron N Gray from comment #3) > The HP DL140 G3 is using a HP Smart Array E200 SATA Controller How are the disks configured? Are you running RAID/LVM/LUKS etc on top of the drives attached to this controller? In dracut, check the device name of the usb stick using dmesg, then mkdir /usbstick ; mount /dev/sd<X> /usbstick ; cp files /usbstick ; umount /usbstick I would think - unless the device isn't automatically showing up in /dev under dracut.
