Well, I don't know how to make screenshots on a system that's no connection to the outside world anymore. Besides, one problem is (as said in the initial mailing list thread) that there are so many messages that the trigger has scrolled off the screen and I can't scroll back on the dracut console (or at least not far enough). So if anybody can tell me how to create a netconsole that is active throughout the boot/shutdown process I can debug things from a different box, otherwise that'll have to wait until I can repurpose the serial temporarily.
