Description of problem: have tried to boot Fedora-11-{alpha,beta,snap1} but does not manage to get system booted. After SYSlinux message a grey screen turns up with no message or picture in it. If ESC is pressed a boot prompt shows up (any hint on what to fill in here ? i have been unsuccessful this far) If any other key is pressed something along the lines of "TAB for alternatives" comes up but nothing happens when pressing tab. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): F-11-{alpha,beta,snap1}-liveimage.x86_64 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot from said live image (present on a USB key) 2. 3. Actual results: grey screen, no progress Expected results: i wanted to make sure that the NOUVEAU driver works for my setup in F11 Additional info: [pontus@selleri ~]$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ/P/PL Memory Controller Hub (rev 02) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ/P/PL PCI Express Root Port (rev 02) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 01) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) PCI Express Port 4 (rev 01) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 01) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 01) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 01) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB UHCI Controller #4 (rev 01) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 01) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801GB/GR (ICH7 Family) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 01) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801GB/GR/GH (ICH7 Family) SATA IDE Controller (rev 01) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 01) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7600 GT] (rev a1) 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

sorry - the "any" key part above should read "TAB key"
Did you create the liveusb on a f10 system? This won't work. You can upgrade syslinux from rawhide and it should then make a functioning live usb. 'yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux' Or just burn the images to media and they should work.
yep i created the image via the liveusb-creator tool in F10 ok - so i guess that this is a non valid bug then - sorry for the fuzz brg Pontus
