I've recently started having a problem logging in FC16 x64: -
On first attempt, end up in loop (can see 'Loading initial ramdisk' for a second time) and then nothing just a blank screen, sometimes Ctrl+Atl+Backspace can break the loop but it's not consistent.
If I wait roughly a minute or so, I see the second 'Loading initial ramdisk', login prompt appears and I can log in no problems.
This has only started happening recently, I'm currently on kernel 3.4.2-1.fc16.x86_64.
I have tried to find a solution, there are a couple of posts (couldn't add URL's, post was denied) but neither of these seem to fit.
I'm no Linux expert, as such I haven't messed around with any settings/policies, simply use yum update; and don't know where to start.
I have got this from the messages log but it may as well be written in DoubleDutch
