100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install minimal Rawhide
2. reboot

Actual results:
Oops - see above screenshoot

Expected results:
no crash

Comment 1 Josh Boyer 2013-06-21 09:13:48 EDT

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 00:48:20 EDT

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 05:38:39 EDT

you have to add grubby to the minimal install

Comment 4 Jens Petersen 2013-07-02 23:43:43 EDT

So should dracut require grubby?

Or do we add it to the @core group?

Comment 5 Harald Hoyer 2013-07-03 04:35:24 EDT

Add it to the @core group

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2013-07-03 04:50:40 EDT

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. :)
