Sorry, I forgot about that. I just tried my test LVM system with dracur-037-r1 and it didn't work. I have not tried yet your workaround, but there is obviously something fishy going on with the latest version of dracut; I would stay with 036-r4. I will try your workaround, although my system is a little more complicated, since it uses RAID and LUKS besides LVM.
