Examine /var/log/XFree86.0.log

I found like someone else on the ml there was a problem with the keyboard 
being set to a 105 key one, I changed it to 102

        Option      "XkbModel" "pc102"

and it got further.

I also needed to run xfs by hand.

Here is a tip if you are using the nVidia driver, which on my machine does not 
work properly on the virtual terminals (Ctrl-Alt F1, etc).

At the grub prompt you can type a key (a I think) to append the kernel command 
line.  If you add 

linux 3

here then you will come up in runlevel 3, ie, without X.  Then you can use vi 
to change the /etc/X11/XF86Config situation.  When you want to try X

telinint 5

will try to go to runlevel 5 and start X.
