I am not getting the filesystem conversion.

What am I doing wrong?

I updated dracut and everything else that would install

rpm -q dracut
dracut-017-22.mga3

Regenerated initrd for the running kernel using
dracut -f -a convertfs

Reboot

At the command prompt I append
rw rd.convertfs

No conversion occurs
installing filesystem-2.1.9-18.mga3.x86_64.rpm
from /var/cache/urpmi/rpms
Installation failed:	rpmlib(X-CheckUnifiedSystemdir) is needed
by filesystem-2.1.9-18.mga3.x86_64

I do not have a separate /usr
