Have you tried booting with another kernel (if applicable)? Is this a virtual server?

Try adding crashkernel=500M*" in your GRUB file or upon reboot as a parameter to the kernel. This doesn't seem to be related to the next errors though.

*Play a bit with this number to find the best value, or set it to "auto".

Could you give a little more info about "not booting"

It's just a little hard for me to follow. So you turn it on, it has power - how far through boot does it go. Have you tried/are you able to get in to single user mode?
