Umm ...
That's not going to help my problem, unforunately,
In my case, it finishes booting and you have no keyboard, no mouse, and
no network.
So no way to log in, no way to get to a console, no way to do anything.
So ... any other ideas?
I have this problem on every single 2.6.9 and 2.6.11 smp kernel that's
been released, on both FC3 and FC4T3. Nothing has helped - no kernel
parms, nothing.
I'm very very close to getting frustrated enough where I'm going to have
to dump fedora, if there's not some kind of a solution soon.

Something else to try, is booting with nmi_watchdog=1
When it hangs, it should then print a backtrace after 5 seconds.
(This does need you to be on the console though, so make sure
X isn't focused -- unless you have a serial console.)
