I had the same problem, I usually buy AMD processors, but I read about
the problem, I bought an Intel box. Still, the whole boot process
seemed to take place up, but ended in an infinite loop waiting for
startup process to end. I threw in the towel on Fedora and went to
Ubuntu. But ubuntu 19.04 had the same problem. There is a loop at the
end of the boot process that has no time limit and apparently doesn't
find whatever it is looking for. Journalctl didn't help me figure out
what was going on. Checked numerous websites via google and
duckduckgo, but found no help there either. I backed down to Ubuntu
18.09 and things work. So now I'm running an older ubuntu. But if the
root problem isn't fixed my brandnew Intel system with AMD 2060 RTX
graphics will not load an upgraded Linux.
I have been with Fedora since Fedora 7. I loved it, but in the last 3
years, it has been degenerating, with the institution of Wayland it
went down hill even faster in my opinion, because apps I depend on
would not work even when the upgraded versions were added. I use
openscad daily, and it seems to be at least one or two revisions back
even in Fedora 30, but I could not even get Fedora 30 to boot. Weird,
though, the live CD would run.

on that, I tried Fedora 31 RC1.9 Workstation Live. That boots up
fine, but when I try to install to my "disk" (M.2 NVMe), if file
system encryption is enabled, it hangs at "Creating luks on
/dev/nvme0n1p6". I let it sit there for 20 minutes with no progress
made.
If I install with file system encryption disabled, it installs fine.
Maybe this is more fallout from the RDRAND problem?
