Is this a SCSI drive?  There was a bug in F10, fixed by the first yum
update, but I would imagine that that's been fixed in F11 unless it
slipped back in. 

If so, the workaround at the time was to add a line to the kernel line
in grub scsi_mod.scan=sync

Note that would only apply if it was a SCSI drive, and I would be
surprised, as it was fixed pretty quickly (though it remains in the
release ISOs.)  The only reason I mention it is because that was a
typical error message with that issue, of being unable to mount root.
