I am copying this to the test list so that the most likely people that can help you will see it. As I understand your problem, you install F14, it installs without problem, but then when you reboot after the install, it fails to boot. It continues to reset over and over again. I have seen similar behavior when the kernel could not get the video working. When I hit Ctl-C, I was dropped to a console, where I could log in and examine the logs. Can you do the same? What do you see in /var/log/messages? Alternatively, you could edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and change the defaults so that there is a timeout before booting. Then edit the kernel line and add a 3 to the end so you boot to text mode. Login as root, and try the startx command. If it fails, look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see why X is failing. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
