Additional info:

This is a Penguin Computing Altus 1300, an AMD64 2-processor system with 16GB
RAM & 2x120GB HD configured with FC5 and updated. I'm using this at Cisco for
server consolidation.

I changed grub.conf to run level 3, after seeing graphics boot hang.

I tried the console_sync trick, it didn't work. It consistently freezes at the
same point (see console messages above).

Thanks,
