found if I remove quiet and and boot with rd.break on the linux line of my boot config I can get at the file that you're talking about, but have to umount /sysroot then mount -w /dev/sda2 /sysroot (sdx would change if diff). the file can then be removed. I tried redoing the process and it hung every time. strange, I've done about 8 systems this way flawlessly. g.
