Changes in the dracut environment broke assumptions in the runtime 
environment.  Code in newUI is different from old code in some of the 
same areas, which means doing the work twice instead of once.  Not to 
mention porting forward all the other bits of F17's anaconda that 
doesn't work with F18's userland tools/apis.
