fedora 18 and lsi latest kernels don't boot

[Gianluca Cecchi]

Hello,
default 3.6.10-4.fc18.x86_64 f18 install kernel is ok.
Instead both
kernel-3.8.4-202.fc18
and
3.7.9-205.fc18

stop at boot with error and systemd emergency shell and journalctl
shows like in this picture:

any hint?
I suspect raid controller:
The same thing happens on two intel blades after I install f18 and run
a yum update.
