Fedora 14 Custom Kickstart prefdm error

Been working on a project for class involving custom spins of Fedora and for some reason when I try to boot these images, they go as far as flashing the "f" on the screen then it goes to a black screen. When running the boot process without the graphical interface, it shows that prefdm is restarting constantly and then stops. While running in single-user mode, i don't get this error, but I also can't log on to do anything.

I could really use some help on this matter.

Does the stock LiveCD work on the hardware in question? If so, what video driver does it use?

The stock LiveCD from Fedora works and SOAS works. I'm not sure exactly what driver its using but I've taken whatever is being used for SOAS and implementing my own packages and its working now.
