Is there no way to get those custom libs off ?

I know I had to completely wipe my machine and I had 4 tbit to loose
Tell me I was not choked?

It was exactly the same thing

Black screen and no way to recover.

Just remember Install fc12
Add remove software select your Nvidia driver
The new kernel will install with the Nvidia

Blacklist Nouveau in grub.config
Lower selinux defense so the driver will load
Reboot and enjoy
