It looks like it stopped booting, so either your boot environment got
damaged or the F14 kernel fails on your machine. Does the Fedora 14
Live CD boot successfully for you? Do you have enough space in the /boot
partition? Can you boot the Live CD, spacebar into the grub menu and try
booting off the local hard disk?
Haven't tried live cd - don't have a
dvd/cd drive on the box. Plenty of room in the /boot
partition.
/dev/sda1 485M 246M 214M 54% /boot
Grub comes up of the hard disk just fine. If I select thetitle Upgrade to Fedora 14
(Laughlin)
kernel /boot/upgrade/vmlinuz preupgrade repo=hd::/var/cache/yum/preupgrade
ks=hd:/dev/sda1/upgrade/ks.cfg stage2=hd:/dev/sda1/upgrade/install.img
initrd /boot/upgrade/initrd.img
I just get a flashing cursor in the top left corner of the screen. I can then ctl-alt-del
and select the f13 kernel from grub and the
system will boot back into f13.

I was hoping maybe there were some options I could add to the kernel line to make it
boot.
