The laptop (an old Dell I4100) works fine with FC5 kernels 2145 and 2157. One of my 64-bit desktops (Athlon based) shows the exact behavior you describe with both kernels, but works fine with kernel 2122. When running 2145 or 2157, I can get into it using ssh over the network, but the console monitor is turned off. The other 64-bit desktop (P4 based) simply won't boot with these two kernels, ending with kernel panic during initrd. It works fine with kernel 2133. I am not a linux guru - but if this is still an issue then please let me know how I can assist.
