So I removed the nvidia items and reinstalled.

In /var/log/messages I saw dracut commands for every kernel EXCEPT the 4.14.5 elrepo kernel. So I did it manually and I get an error.

/usr/bin/dracut --add-drivers nvidia -f /boot/initramfs-4.14.5-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64.img 4.14.5-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 Failed to install module nvidia

No sure what to do.

The elrepo kmod packages ONLY support the distro RHEL/CentOS kernels. They are NOT compatible with any other non-KABI compatible kernels, including the mainline and LTS kernel packages from elrepo.

Hope that helps.
