I have installed the 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 kernels but they all fail at the same place.  They just don't boot.  I have yum erased them to have a booting kernel.  The only one that boots.

I have lspci from machine in case if its useful.  Should I yum erase dracut/ and yum install it back?

[olivares@E-213-5W ~]$ su -c 'lspci'
