I have a Fedora 9 installation. The initial kernel worked fine. Then I did a yum update and one of the new updates was a new kernel, but when I tried to reboot with that kernel it won't do anything. The same exact thing happens with the latest kernel in yum.
If I take the vga= line out of my grub command I can get the following:
Code:
Decompressing Linux... Parsing ELF...Done
Booting Kernel ....
Aperture beyond 4GB Ignoring
Kernel Alive
That's it, nothing else. No HD activity, nothing. If I leave the vga= line in there then after grub I just get a blank screen.
Here's my grub.conf..
Code:
default=0
timeout=15
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu

I've tried with both the UUID= gunk and the /dev/whatever stuff as well. Both do the same exact thing.
