It sounds like your kernels aren't assembling the RAID device on boot, which *might* be related to the above bug if one of the devices is broken.  It's hard to tell from your description.  You mentioned that the rescue kernel boots, but I wonder if the array is degraded at that point.

I agree, it sounds like the initramfs kernel is not assembling the raid1 devices (/,/boot,swap) or certainly not setting the links /dev/md/root /dev/md/boot and /dev/md/swap which then cause dracut to fail.

I have no idea why the rescue kernel boots just fine, although it does not establish the above links either, rather it sets up the links /dev/md/<hostname>:{boot,root,swap} pointing to the assembled /dev/md125 etc.

My particular problem is: how do I get it to boot the later kernels? What should be my repair process?

I have tried a boot with the rhgb and quiet removed and got no additional information.

BTW once booted cat /proc/mdstat gives:

no degraded raid devices .....


Otherwise, you might remove "rhgb" and "quiet" from the kernel boot parameters and see if there's any useful information printed to the console while booting a recent kernel.
