I've not seen it before but what I recommend is to go to a generic initrd so it pulls in all the drivers, move over to the new device and then allow it to go back to a host specific initrd. I suspect there's slightly different HW requirements. To do this install the dracut-config-generic package and reinstall or upgrade the kernel, it'll be slower to boot, make sure it boots on the current device, move to the new one. Once it's running on the new one remove the package and the next kernel will go back to a host specific initrd with the specific initrd for the new HW.
