Nothing in dracut cares about what partition it is on, and grub is not finding the initramfs. Grub is failing to find the boot.cfg files and vmlinuz and inittramfs. So either you have the wrong grub being started or the right grub but it cannot find its config files. Are you trying to move /root or /boot or is your /boot on /root without a separate /boot? Did you set /dev/sda3 as bootable in whatever program you used to partition? (if not efi). My general plan would be to set the new partition bootable with the partitioning program (fdisk there are options to find the option to set bootable) (this all assumes you aren't using EFI). liveboot it. mount the new installs root (/) under /mnt mount the new install boot device under /mnt/boot mount -o bind /dev/ /mnt/dev mount -o bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts mount -o bind /proc /mnt/proc mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys this allows the chroot system to access devices and other critical resources to be able to run. if you are efi then you would need it mounted /dev/sda1 under /mnt/boot/efi Then chroot /mnt and rerun the grub commands inside the chroot which should look like the system you want to boot. The grub commands typically rely on finding /boot so if the new boot is not at /boot when you ran those commands then it won't work right. On a rescue type boot the above mounting/chroot stuff allows the OS to be fixed with the installs tools to be used which is typically best. if this is efi then efibootmgr and/or the efi menu would have been needed to point to the new /boot. To further troubleshoot you probably need to provide a lot more details about exactly you were trying and how you were trying it And what fstab is now and what it looked like before.
