Initramfs not found

Ask Fedora

Hello,

since a recent update I am not able to boot to the latest kernel 6.1.9.
I get the following error:

Booting 'Fedora Linux (6.1.9-200.fc37.x86_64) 37 (Workstation Edition)'

error: ../../grub-core/fs/fshelp.c:257:file
'/initramsf-6.1.9-200.fc37.x86_64.img' not found.

Press any key to continue...

Pressing any key does not yield any result. I have to power off the machine manually.
I am able to boot 6.1.8 via grub menu though.
I’ve tried to reinstall kernel 6.1.9, but it has not solved the issue.

Any hints how to solve this?

Ok, it was obvious. There was no initramfs image created under /boot.
Creating it manually has fixed the issue.

$ sudo su
# dracut --kver 6.1.9-200.fc37.x86_64
