All tools based on libdevmapper (lvm, cryptsetup, kpartx, ...)
fails in initialization. (fixed already in devel tree)

mdadm is broken with 3.0 as well (it fails to auto assemble devices)
because of misparsing kernel version.

Fedora was quite proactive and added uts name patch "3.0-rc1",
so you can see what it caused... (unbootable system in short)
