thanks for all of the responses to Tim: sticky bits on /tmp are set to Ed Greshko: I do not see 'authentication failure', the login screen just recycles
to Kam Leo, others: I can't get runlevel 3 to take effect:
Working from my mainf14, I changed the /etc/inittab in the f14backup, [root@f14 ~]# cd /media/rootusb2_ [root@f14 rootusb2_]# cat etc/inittab ... id:3:initdefault: [root@f14 rootusb2_]#
rebooted to the backupf14, same response, acts like still in X blue screen, login screen just recycles, no change at all.
To Lamar Owen, Dan Walsh: I feel like a perpetual newbie re selinux. Not sure how to proceed, because I can't get past the login screen in backupf14 . Anything I can do re selinux, working from my mainf14?

From the login screen can you do a "Ctrl + Alt + F2" and get a virtual
terminal?
If so, can you login as yourself, root?
If that works, can you edit your grub.conf to make sure it starts in level 3? And then try startx? Or, can you look the /var/log/Xorg.0.log and other log files to see if you can spot the problem?

Are you booting with selinux=0 or enforcing=0?
