Hello,
can you start the GUI by going first to level 3 ?
That is :
reboot ,when GRUB opens ,choose the line kernel 2.6.31-12 and type "a" .
Append a space and "3" to the kernel start arguments .
Boot with enter or "b" ,and be patient for 2-3 min.
This start the os into level 3 ,and you should be able to login with user
name
and pasword .
After login type "startx" ,again some patience and your in GUI.
There are still some issues and checks ,but first this should work .
Reply the results and we'll see.
Greetings

I guess that this will also not work, because the mount of the root
filesystem are fail. This is either a missing initrd.img or, more
likely, a faulty initrd.img created by dracut. In my opinion Rob
should fill a bug against dracut. I don't run into this problem,
although I used at least the same two kernels which Rob sees this
error.
Some days ago I run into a similar problem [1] but this was caused by
the missing initrd.img line in the menu.lst configuration file.

Hello Niels,
I have issues to get in GUI with 2.6.2... and 2.6.12... witch I (partly)
solved.
With 2.6.2 it booted until GDM should appear : black screen and monitor
shutdown
after a short wile .
See also " Dracut or Selinux ... " thread on this forum (14-09-09).
Its already a whole story , and depending on the results of what I suggested
,
I can refer to further "cures" .
There are indeed issues with Dracut ,but they are partly as result of
selinux-policy 3.6.31-3 . In the meantime Dan Walsh has created 3.6.31-4
but it is not yet pushed in rawhide .
Dracut couldn't create a correct ( complete ) initrd ,for several reasons ,
and so the system would not show up GDM ,and your stuck !
That's why I suggest level 3 ,and then startx because that worked ( for me
).
Also with the partly created initrd ,it went wrong ,dracut had not
"promoted"
itself to be the rightful owner and the selinux context wasn't correct .
For some reason it also wanted to read
/lib/modules/kernel-2.6.31-2..../modules.dep
witch isn't there ,should be : /lib/modules/2.6.31-2..../modules.dep
There is still a lot more ... ,install kernel 2.6.31-12 didn't work the
"normal" way.
Latest updates didn't update initscripts 8.99-1 and ...
I solved al of this ,except I still have to go via level 3 & login & startx
Kernel 2.6.31-12 and initscripts 8.99-1 are doing well ,but it had & has a
to do ...
Of course you can wait for updates ,but when nobody exposes the bugs ,
well ... wait .
Would still like to see the results from other installs on this ,(going via
level 3)
Greetings,

dracut is broken: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=522486
As a workaround use mkinitrd to generate your own initrd and boot
with this one instead.
