I have filed bugs before but I have not dealt with dracut as it is not as friendly as when one sees a selinux alert and files a bug with bug friendly tools and configures the bugzilla account.  This dracut stuff, please forgive me, provides no such option.  I want a (fool proof)/(idiot proof)/(friendly *) way of fixing this issue.  I have not encountered this issue.  Now I have three machines running Fedora 18 the only one i686 is the laptop and the others are desktops running x86_64 and they are working beautifully with the new/shiny 3.6.2 kernel but this one boots no kernel other than the first one.  

Thanks,


Antonio
