This was a known problem before the release. I don't know why it isn't
published more widely. Basically, you should read
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=241249
There seems to be three options.
1) Add maxcpus=1 to the kernel boot line of grub. This will let you boot
with only one cpu;
2) Add clocksource=acpi_pm to the kernel boot line of grub. This seems
to work for everybody
3) After booting by some method (possibly an older kernel), update to
the kernel found at http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/fc7/
I am currently using method 2 for my D620.
