I don't understand if you're getting this post-install, or when booting the netinstall media on a system with pre-existing mdadm raid1? You shouldn't have to make any modifications to the grub menu entry in either case, so I don't know why you think you need to do that. The fact you're getting to a dracut prompt suggests this is not a problem with the bootloader not finding its root (set root in GRUB speak is referring to its root, i.e. the device and partition that /boot/grub2 is located on); it's sounding more like a problem with mounting sysroot, which suggests either a problem with the grub root=UUID= value (which should be for the fs volume UUID as reported by blkid, not a partition UUID), or a problem with fstab, or a problem with assembling the raid. Most useful would be putting the rdsosreport.txt that dracut usually prepares in such cases, it will tell you at the dracut prompt where this is, it should be in /run/, but if one isn't generated maybe most of the useful information can be found with: journalctl -b -l -o short-monotonic > journal.log blkid > blkid.txt scp those somewhere, or copy to usb stick, and then post them somewhere and then a URL in this thread where to find them. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
