The one thing you didn't answer in the "solved" is how you accomplished
the mount /.

Actually it's very complicated by needing to work around https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=808970. The whole ordeal was precipitated by the need to see if https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51640 needed to be filed (which it was), after which I replied to thread with problem "solved". Actually it's only partly solved.

The first tries were to sda13, which was then rsync'd to sda12 and fstab & grub cmdline modified accordingly for use. After those failed the first tries I tried using sda13 without the move to sda12, but still was getting Rescue Mode. It was only after switching to installing F17 instead of Rawhide, and fixing the cmdline typo, that I was able to reach multiuser and do things instead of needing to chroot in from a different installation to get anything accomplished. I then upgraded F17 to Rawhide in order to reach the initial goal (bug 51640).

So now the installation indirectly (rsync sda13 to sda12) from Rawhide still has the problem:
