   An update that has two recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:

   This update for linuxrc fixes the following issues:

   - Move plymouthd start after screen size detection. (bsc#1163115)
     plymouthd is now started after the screen size detection for avoiding
     race conditions with linuxrc. This is because the screen size detection
     might potentially interfere with plymouthd as both linuxrc and plymouthd
     might try to read from the same serial line.

   - Iterate through the device list in sorted order. (bsc#1058039) When
     searching for the installation repository, linuxrc iterates through
     available local or network devices. As the devices were used in the
     order they appeared in sysfs, it was more or less random.
