Dear folks,
When starting up with newer kernels, I cannot boot machine.
I get
dracut-initqueue[197]: Warning: Could not boot
dracut-initqueue[197]: Warning: /dev/root does not exist

I am booting to the kernel in `uname -r`, the newer ones
kernel-3.6.1-1.fc18.i686
kernel-3.6.0-3.fc18.i686
do not boot :( I downloaded a Nightly build to test/install on another machine and I get this same error on top. The livecd does not boot. I disable selinux with "enforcing=0" and it still fails the same, so it is not selinux's fault.
Thanks for ideas & suggestions.
Best Regards,
Antonio
