There is indeed a bug in the rc.sysinit as JA Magallon said.

As the fresh install is using systemd, it likely masked the problem.

If you update the failing partition to the latest initscripts I've just
submitted and retest it that would be great.

If it doesn't boot enough to be able to install packages easily enough,
you could either.

a) mount that partition from another install and use rpm --root to
install the new package, or.
b) Boot it with init=/bin/systemd on kernel cmd line which will
hopefully be enough to boot and then update packages and then reboot
without systemd to test it.

Hope that makes sense and sorry for the hassle.

Col
