If your root is on a non-assembled device (like a plain partition), then dracut (at least for F20) does not store any UUIDs in the initramfs in hostonly mode. You can check with: # lsinitrd | egrep '.*requires.*\.device' and # lsinitrd | egrep 'etc/cmdline.d/.*\.conf' Both should be empty for simple partition setups. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
