When booting Fedora 17 x64 there's the GRUB bootloader with graphical background image, I let it boot the default entry "Fedora 17", I see it the allocating memory pages, loading VMLINUZ etc, and then the display mode / resolution changes, and then there's just blank screen and a cursor blinking..
If you see a resoution change then try booting with nomodeset.
You might also see if you can get one of the alternate terminals. If that works then the kernel is booted and its just X which is not starting.
I can't change terminals. I assume the kernel doesn't boot at all, or crashes very early. I can't see any kind of activity from Linux kernel after GRUB-efi messages and the screen switches to blank..

Have you tried booting with more logging? Without "quiet" param?
There's no "quiet" param. The default UEFI boot options are "verbose" as a default.
I can't see *any* output from Linux kernel. Also I tried settings up SOL serial console, but I can't see any Linux messages there either. SOL stays empty/silent.
Is serial console supposed to work OK in the usual way, with UEFI boot?
And again: Booting in legacy BIOS mode works OK, and the serial console works there aswell. I have problems only in UEFI mode, where I can't get *any* output from Linux.

Are you booting x86 or x86_64 version?
I don't think x86 is supported for UEFI boot.
