FC2 boot/login problem (continued)

I turned off the rhgb option and can now see all of the
services starting up, without any problems.  I then briefly
see a text login prompt (which apparently isn't functional),
followed by a dark screen with hourglass, when normally I'd
get the graphical login screen.  My only option at this
point is to turn off the computer.

Help?!

Thanks

Turn off the rhgb kernel option.
