* read the dracut man page
* remove "rhgb" from the kernel command line and maybe "quiet"
* add "rdshell" to the kernel command line and you are dropped to a shell
* add "rdshell rdinitdebug" to the kernel command line and dracut shell commands 
are printed as they are executed
* with dracut >= 002-11 ( 
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=134721 ), you can inspect 
the rdinitdebug output with:
# less /init.log
  and
# dmesg | less
