Description of problem: Although I specify the hardware as x86_64, this likely happens on all X86 installs. This also may (or may not) be an issue on other hardware using extlinux. As usual, anaconda installs a "rescue" kernel. However, unlike what it does on a system using the grub2 bootloader, it does not add the entry for the rescue kernel into extlinux.conf. Yes, I do not expect this to be fixed in Fedora 20 and, yes, this is easily fixed post install. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 20
Created attachment 899356 [details] always rescan for vmlinuz-* if rescueKernelList In order to create the rescue kernel and initramfs, kernelVersionList is referenced creating and populating _kernelVersionList. When rescueKernelList is reference it is null. The solution is to always rescan /boot/vmlinuz-* if rescueKernelList is called.
