May 24 00:10:54 redwood.localnet systemd[1]: Starting File System Check on /dev/mapper/vg0-lv1...

So now it's found, I'm gonna guess this is your manual attempt at starting up the array? What do you get for cat /proc/mdstat at the dracut prompt before you do anything else? And also the results from mdstat -E /dev/sda1 mdstate -E /dev/sdb1 blkid These can be redirected to fpaste or a file. If you have network access this early it's easiest to redirect to fpaste but I'm not sure if it's in the initramfs. >From your mdadm.conf, you have UUIDs that do not match what's on the command line. cmdline: rd.md.uuid=5a1848ce:cff64c1f:a622dc1f:e5f06d55 mdadm.conf UUID=c45384af:aa8fc7ca:7eebaeb8:f0ca1523 UUID=524079c6:521ca76f:126164a9:3232e116 Looks like the mdadm.conf is stale and should be recreated, and recreate the initramfs. Thing is, the rd.md.uuid ought to be enough for dracut to startup that array, the mdadm.conf is really just about assigning a particular md array to a particular /dev/mdX assignment, which by the way has changed recently so there might be confusion going on there. You might just try renaming the current mdadm.conf, or commenting out all of the lines, except for one: ARRAY /dev/md0 UUID=5a1848ce:cff64c1f:a622dc1f:e5f06d55 And after saving it, use dracut -f.
