what's about a rescue boot and

yum update kernel ???


if it's a *t3* only
then
	there is a new kernel in rawhide
else
	a manual download of an other [newer|elder] kernel
	and an rpm -ivh kernel-xxx [--oldpackage]
fi

means: i would the install routine let do the work.

maybe a check what's *in* the initrd then agains what has the rescue 
environment loaded (lsmod) related to sata, dm,... .
esp. look at entries with dm ...

rescue mode seems -iirc- to work !
network ?
why dealing with complicated stuff ?

maybe i check an i86_64 install later ...
