Is there any error displayed when kernel hangs at 25%? And it can take some time to pass the 25% (up to ~2min or so).
No, I think it's a kernel hang because the lights on the keyboard halt and I can't change to tty2, etc.. I even changed to tty2 and waited to see if there were some errors but nothing. I've read that "tty8" was the logging console but no luck also. BTW, I tried with an IDE disk and the result was the same.
Mh, okay. Could you try booting without the rhgb and quiet kernel arguments. I hope that some errors will be displayed on the screen so we get an idea about the problem.

In the dracut shell, could you run blkid and post the results?
I noticed that the USB Disk was named RootBackup instead of Root... I then rebooted and chose uninstall and then installed oVirt Node from scratch and now it worked. I can't activate Networking because I have that "no hostname" error mentioned in another post. I think it's related to that...
Yes, I've also seen the hostname error. And I've also seen some problems with the rootfs lately. Could you provide a screenshot/dump of the console with that error?
