95% of the time when I see initrd did not get built and included in the
boot, it was because the kernel install runs in 2 steps, the first step
puts in the kernel grub entry, and the 2nd step build initrd and adds
initrd to the grub config. run "dnf reinstall kernel" and that fixes
it. Usually this happens because dnf got interrupted for some reason.
Watch the rerun and notice that there are 2 steps that take a long time,
one of them puts the files in and the 2nd one builds and adds in initrd.

The last running scriptlet builds the initrd and adds it to grub. It runs
after all install/upgrades are done, and if dnf gets aborted you end up
with kernel only.
