Problem was in broken SW raid1. In F15 was active disk sda but in F17
sdb. This is bug in Fedora:
"mdraid_start" routine in initramfs is not reliable.
see bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=808774#c3

or more in 16.2.2012 "F16 occasionally breaks RAID1 (md) on boot"
thread from Fedora mailing list,

I hope it will work better now.
