I finally got 5.1 to boot after install (install couldn't keep the disk IDs

 I needed to compile vmware and nvidia modules, but decided to upgrade
 first.  Told yumex to upgrade everything.

 When I went to reboot the VG with / on it is not seen by the kernel.  (root
 partition is LVM on top of RAID 1).  If I go back to the old kernel
 everything boots fine.  On the new kernel only the VG on sdc is seen by LVM.

 1. How do I persuade the new kernel to notice the VG with my root partition
 on it.

Not sure this is related but I suppose a "vgscan" wouldn't hurt, would it?

Kind of hard to do a vgscan when a kernel panic occurs after about 20 lines of boot messages. As soon as it tries to pivot mount the root directory I get a kernel panic, because the root partition is on the VG it doesn't see.
