I'm wondering if this is hardware-specific, as I'm running an up to date
rawhide system with the 3.15 kernel on my laptop, and it's running just
fine. (The laptop has Intel graphics, for what it's worth.)
Well, just to interject another data point, I appear to be having
similar issues that are intermittent and/or hardware related. Booting
Rawhide sometimes seems to result in a black screen after X should start
up (but the system is running and ssh-accessible), but sometimes seems
to work fine. Can't swear to it, but it seems to work more than it fails
on my desktop (x86-64, NVIDIA graphics) and fail more than it works on
my tablet (the fedlet, i386, Intel graphics). Haven't really been able
to spot a particular cause yet.
The dracut that was suggested to be problematic in the "Kernels
3.13.9-200.fc20.x86_64 and 3.1389-200.fc20.x86_64 hang at startup on
DELL Precision T3610" thread is present in Rawhide too, of course, which
may be somehow relevant.
I hate nebulous bugs...
