Full update last hour, plus install wifi, 
task-kde and various small bits from commad line

reboot into LXDE, run mcc, change DM to KDM, answer yes to the question if I want to restart DM now:

You need to reboot with your older kernel, update to latest systemd & systemd-udev, then rebuild your initrd.
eg:
rm -f /boot/initrd-3.8.6-desktop-2.mga3.img
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-3.8.6-desktop-2.mga3.img 3.8.6-desktop-2.mga3
