dracut:/#

Server OS is CentOS 7.3 using Xen (no CR updates):

rpm -qa xen\*

xen-hypervisor-4.6.3-15.el7.x86_64

xen-4.6.3-15.el7.x86_64

xen-licenses-4.6.3-15.el7.x86_64

xen-libs-4.6.3-15.el7.x86_64

xen-runtime-4.6.3-15.el7.x86_64

uname -a

Linux tsxen2.xx.com 4.9.39-29.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jul 21 15:09:00 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Sadly, the other issue is that the grub menu will not display for me to select another kernel to see if it is just a kernel issue.

The dracut prompt does not show any /dev/disk folder either.

Any info?

Thanks
