I am newer than you on Linux but try some parameter.
When i installed fedora i had to use the no-hlt parameter to make it work.
When i run fedora for the first time it was locking up. I need to add the no-hlt parameter in the startup file. I think it was in the /boot/grub/ directory but i am not sure. Hope this help.

I am new to Fedora Core and am having trouble geting it to run on my laptop. I have a Compaq Presario 2580, 40GB, 512 MB 802.11g 10/100NIC, CDRW/DVD. I have loaded the program, configured boot to dual boot with Win XP (The borg). When I select Fedora from my boot list it starts and then freezes DIRECTLY AFTER THE SCREEN SAYS LOADING LOCAL DRIVES.
If anyone has information on how I can fix this eror I would greatly appriciate the help. I love linux, and had it running on my old Dell laptop, Redhat 8.0. I can run a live eval of SuSE 8.1, so I dont think it is a campatability issue, but I still cant configure Feora to run.
Please help me.
