 the last two kernels, I have updated with yum update

 linux /vmlinuz-kernel-3.11.7-300.fc20.x86_64
 root=/dev/mapper/luks-alphanumericbit
 
 Has to be fixed before reboot with grub2-mkconfig
 which puts in:
 root=root=UUID=alphanumericbit

The former is the vernacular used by grubby, so if the entry doesn't work it 
may be due to a change in dracut and systemd expecting UUID rather than the 
older vernacular. Open question if the older usage is deprecated and thus a 
grubby bug.

During alpha or maybe early beta, I noticed that grub2-mkconfig would use 
different syntax when called by anaconda with the installed system chrooted, vs 
called directly. The former (installer) produced grub.cfg used e.g. 
root=/dev/sda2, whereas a grub2-mkconfig once booted from sda2 would produce 
e.g. root=UUID=uuid. So it's possible something else is going on, because I 
think grubby just does uses an existing boot entry as a template for the new 
kernel entry.
