@cvijayvinoth Did you install rear-2.6 from the Fedora release or did you downloaded a version from the ReaR download pages?

cvijayvinoth commented at 2020-10-08 02:23:

@cvijayvinoth OK thanks - did you enter the emergency mode to find out what went wrong?

FYI:
This issue is not the same as https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/2528
because in this issue here
https://github.com/rear/rear/files/5340880/rear-localhost.log
shows that the initrd of the recreated system was recreated
