I run into this every time I upgrade Fedora, but I always forget to
follow-up on it... 42's the charm!

In the Upgrading Fedora docs (
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/#sect-update-rescue-kernel)
one of the optional post-upgrade steps is updating the rescue kernel.  The
documentation linked says:

The rescue kernel regeneration process can be automated by installing the
dracut-config-rescue package.

sudo dnf install dracut-config-rescue

Once installed, the rescue kernel will be regenerated as long as dracut is
the initrd generator. See
/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/51-dracut-rescue.install for details.

This seems to be incomplete or incorrect, because that package is installed
but I've never had rescue kernels generated.  The referenced file
(/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/51-dracut-rescue.install) isn't particularly
useful to be referenced for details because it's a shell script with no
user documentation.

Before I dig in and become a dracut expert... is this an easy doc fix for
someone familiar?
