Did you do the part about updating grub to include 'init 3' to disable X? If
so, go back and delete the 'init' (you just need '3'). This fixed the dom0
kernel hang I had.

I asked someone in the #fedora irc channel to fix this, but it's still there.

If anyone can fix it, it also needs to be fixed on
