Did the media check succeed? Can you boot with rd.debug=1 and attach the SOS report from that?

Comment 2 Scott Dodson 2013-12-13 00:02:45 UTC
I've not been able to extract a sha256sum from the burned media, however I burned another copy and that disc at least made it to the point of starting the media check which failed. So given that the first disk never made it to that point I suspect this is simply bad media.
