[Fedoar 23] Unable to boot Fedora 23 on ASUS ROG Laptop

[Earl Ramirez]

Good day All,

Happy Holidays; I received a new ASUS ROG laptop GL552VW-DH71 [0] and each
time I try to boot the live OS it will freeze just before the Gnome xwindow
start. I removed both "rhbg and quiet" from the kernel argument and it
fails at the following stage:

Starting WPA Supplicant daemon...

[ OK ] Started WPA Supplicant daemon.
       12.250106 IPV6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp2s0 link is not ready
[ OK ] Created slice user -1000.slice.
          Starting User Manager for UID 1000...
[ OK ] Started User Manager for UID 1000.

Here is where it is stuck; I am using the Fedora 23 x86_64 workstation; are
there any kernel argument that I can use to fix this so that I am able to
boot and eventually install Fedora 23?

by selecting option "Troupleshooting" in the boot menu and then selecting
to boot in basig graphics mode.

This will disable kernel modesetting and use basig graphics drivers. Be
warned that if you install in basig graphics mode you will have to remove
option nomodeset from kernel commandline of the installed system or create
file /etc/X11/xorg.conf to get sane resolution for GUI.
