If reinstalling the kernel fixes the issue, probably something in the post-install scriptlets fixes it. My system tells me this: ----- $ rpm -q --scripts kernel-2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh): if [ `uname -i` == "x86_64" -o `uname -i` == "i386" ] && [ -f /etc/sysconfig/kernel ]; then /bin/sed -r -i -e 's/^DEFAULTKERNEL=kernel-smp$/DEFAULTKERNEL=kernel/' /etc/sysconfig/kernel || exit $? fi /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --install 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 || exit $? preuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh): /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --rminitrd --rmmoddep --remove 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 || exit $? posttrans scriptlet (using /bin/sh): /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --mkinitrd --dracut --depmod --update 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 || exit $? /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --rpmposttrans 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 || exit $? ----- I would guess that $ /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --mkinitrd --dracut --depmod --update 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 || exit $? would probably fix your issues. If this works, it sounds like some other package (dracut? plymouth? something else?) is missing a scriptlet to remake initrd.
