F28 only has the normal kernel - it doesn't seem to recognize /dev/vg0/root correctly on a softraid mirrored volume for some strange reason. The F27 PAE kernel does. I'm going to try the F27 "normal" kernel and see if that works. If so, I'll update to get the F28 one and see if it makes a difference. It may also be something strange related to dracut and/or grubby on F28 with this machine - it is ancient (orignally Red Hat 5.2, I think) but has been working for at least 10 years. I may just try to reinstall with F28 or F27, too (I'm using xfce, I think that is possible still). The system has a 2.2G Pentium 4 - it isn't 64-bit but does doe PAE.
Ok, so using the F27 installed kernel works on F28. It's more likely to be a dracut problem than a kernel problem. Try removing the rescue initramfs and reinstall the F28 kernel.
Are you sure that P4 isn't 64-bit? I have a bunch of them that are, although they are 3.4GHz ones. Also, I don't think I can even put 4GB of RAM in them, so in my case I didn't need the PAE kernel anyway. If I put 4 1GB DIMMs, the BIOS only shows just over 3GB of usable RAM. A while back, I reinstalled them all as 64-bit.
