That's a different thing. The rescue kernel is only to have all kernel
modules available. The "inst.rescue" mode is available on netinst
images (and maybe others?) and boots an actual rescue mode that lets

in the root volume, would the right solution be:
- in preuninstall, determine whether the rescue kernel matches the
version being removed, and if so, remove it, and then:

Summary--
Most all Fedora variants (except Cloud) have a GRUB menu entry
containing the word "rescue". This kernel+initramfs pair are never
updated for the life of a Fedora installation. And they quickly become
stale as a Fedora installation ages. This kernel's modules are
