Description Rory Renton 2012-09-28 09:48:44 UTC 
Description of problem:
after grub screen, if kernel 3.5.4-1.fc17.x86_64 is selected, screen goes black and nothing happens, no sound of hard drive, and it eventually powers down (hard drive)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel 3.5.4-1.fc17.x86_64

How reproducible:
every time I select to boot with kernel 3.5.4-1.fc17.x86_64

Can you remove 'rhgb' and 'quiet' from the command line and see if something is being printed out before it hangs?

We need a bit more information to go on before we can really work on this bug.
