After a great deal of effort I'm now up on FC6. It turns out that there is some type of incompatibility with my video card and the VESA drivers. It was freezing as it was starting the FB boot screen. I was able to interup the boot with CTRL-C and it made it all the way to the login screen, X tried to start but was unable. I added the ATI drivers from Livina and manually changed the xorg.conf file from vesa to fglrx. My video card is an ATI Radeon X1600 (RV530) so it anyone else is having this problem it can be overcome. On 11/4/06, Christopher Johnson <seac0rd@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
I think your right, I've downloaded the CD images and they seem to work. I might have just had a bad burn.
