That does not help. I am starting to think that the problem is in
the bootloader
or very early in the Linux startup process.
What program prints the messages:
"Loading initrd.img ..."
"Ready."
grub/kernel !
if it is the bootloader it would turn out error messages...
some month ago there was a broadcast with a boot option on
{test,devel}-list to slow down booting with many debug output, but i
don't remember if it was build in special.
stupid questions:
does your install cd fit to your arch ? i386/x86_64
enough RAM for a live cd ?
did you check your bios settings ?
- defaults
- ...
- hd settings
- unnessary devices OFF
- latest bios
i found some hints here
http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-precision/2005-September/000700.html
did try booting with
- T1 rescue/rawhide boot.iso cd ?
- the boot files from T1 *in* your F7's grub.conf ?
as mentioned here http://planet.fedoraproject.org/
see blog entry: "Installation ohne Medium"
(irc F7 is on your (?) box, if not: a bios setting exchange ... )
and do
- a network install
- a minimal F7 install and a subsequent upgrade to T1 ...
- ...

a good description for serial console:
http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid39_gci1118136,00.html
serial console is ~in~ F7 and esp. in {test,devel}-kernels !
