After upgrading my Mobo and CPU to an Asus m4a78-em and a sempron 2.7GHz
AM3 chip I booted up. All my drives are recognized, the grub prompt
comes up (I'm dual booting with windows XP on a smaller drive) and life
seems good until the screen goes blank. After booting couple of times I
tried using noapic to no avail. Once more I tried but removed quiet
from the grub kernel line. This time I see stuff happening but the text
flies by so fast I can't read it, but at least I see the system trying
to boot.
I always upgrade using yum, never had a real problem I couldn't work
out. I'm using stock LVM, never had a problem there either. I wonder
if its grub but I didn't want to start messing around until I got a
little advice. Also, I am dual booting windows on a separate drive.
Any ideas?
I'd try "nomodeset" (and no "quiet").
If it does not work maybe you can see some boot messages.
