Attempting to answer my own question... I'm not sure if this is the
correct way, but I tried running this:
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/51-dracut-rescue-postinst.sh $(uname -r) \
/boot/initramfs-$(uname
-r)*
And now I have rescue files again:
# ls -latr /boot/*0-rescue*

/boot/initramfs-0-rescue-...img
-rw---. 1 root root 7860871 Apr 8 16:46 /boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-...
Is dracut supposed to run the /etc/kernel/postinst.d/* scripts
automatically? I ran dracut through 'bash -x' and strace and it didn't
appear to even look in /etc/kernel/postinst.d
The reason I removed the file in the first place is because grub2-mkconfig
generates a not-very-descriptive entry in the menu. My grub.cfg now has this:
menuentry 'Fedora, with Linux 0-rescue-344...c20' ... {
Furthermore, my system is set up to dual boot between Fedora 17 and 19
Alpha, and now grub2-mkconfig has set this rescue image as the default
kernel for F17.
menuentry 'Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle)' ... {
...
linux /vmlinuz-0-rescue-344...
}
That seems a little strange to me.

/etc/kernel/postinst.d/* scripts are called by new-kernel-pkg, which is called
in the kernel.spec, when you install a kernel.
new-kernel-pkg uses grubby to generate a grub config.
grub2-mkconfig destroys anything grubby has setup.
Well, we could patch grub2-mkconfig to recognize the rescue image, but we should
better concentrate to make grub2-mkconfig obsolete and integrate the bootloader
spec.

Implementing the BooLoaderSpec just might encounter problems in practice, like every other attempt for the past 20 years to create a grand unified boot loader that correctly understands all existing OS and hardware configurations. -- -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
