Cool, glad to hear. I recall reading some discussion of problems with
dracut that might explain the boot issue, I can't quite remember where -
can anyone help out? Definitely something we should check into. It may
be the case that if you ensure you have the latest dracut and then
re-install the kernel it might work better?
