I have encountered this "bug" several times. First I thought it's something serious. Then I realized that rebooting cures this problem and my computer works good. I started to diagnose problem (read messages from dracut) after 4 or 5 occurrences. It's very wrong! I think lot of users with disk encryption enabled might encounter this bug because it's not so rare to make coffee when your system boots up. Then you miss this time window to enter the password and ....? F*, my system is broken again. I don't believe all Fedora users are sysadmins or geeks smart enough to take this kid of error easily. There should be at last huge banner with red blinking messaged "Time out! Please, reboot."
