A further thought.  Before you build a kernel, try rebuilding the
initramfs using dracut.

/usr/bin/dracut -f -H [numerical part of the vmlinuz file in boot]

e.g. /usr/bin/dracut -f -H 4.20.3-200.fc29.x86_64

This has to be done as root while in the /boot directory.  It might
pick up something that the kernel needs that is missing from the
current initramfs.

If you end up building a custom kernel, be sure to use 
make localmodconfig
from a running system (an older kernel that boots) so that the
configuration options are selected to be customized for your system
based on modules installed. The Fedora kernel is a general kernel, with
options that should support the broadest set of kernels, but it might
be there is an option that you need that isn't in the stock kernel.
This rebuilds the initramfs during install automatically.
