It contains.... Jun 12 15:47:27 localhost dracut[5060]: Executing: /usr/bin/dracut -f /boot/initramfs-4.16.14-200.fc27.x86_64.img 4.16.14-200.fc27.x86_64 Which happens when a new kernel is being installed. It also contains references to sessions with uid=1000 which is normally the first user created at install time and would only appear at a successful login or ssh session. Your subject seems to imply that you never get to login screen at either a graphical or run level 3 boot. Suggest you also edit your boot parameters to remove "rhgb" and "quiet" to watch the boot process more closely. -- Conjecture is just a conclusion based on incomplete information. It isn't a fact.
