since what fixed it was moving the 'initramfs' command above
'savedefault & boot' lines, that the problem was that it was trying to
boot without the initramfs at all. I think that there is a bug in grubby
or whatever process installs the kernel on F13 which seemed to have the
boot commands out of sequence.
