The current setting in /etc/sysconfig/kernel for KMS is:

NO_KMS_IN_INITRD=""

However, it's bad practice to use "NO" in a setting, because setting the
*value* to "no" is a double negative, and people find it hard to parse the
meaning of the setting that way.

It should be:

KMS_IN_INITRD=""  # defaults to yes

There is still time to fix!
