Hi, For the problem with the missing shell on virtual console #2, try booting with the option "linux allowcddma". I experienced the same problem you described, in my case it was an issue with DMA access to my CD-ROM device. See the following Bugzilla report for more information : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=109462 As for the missing logo, I think your video card is not 100% supported by ISOLINUX (see http://syslinux.zytor.com/iso.php).
