I had similar troubles on my laptop. Things you might try:
* Disable rhgb (on the grub screen, hit "a" and remove "rhgb" from the
kernel options). If this works, edit /etc/grub.conf when your system
boots up to permanently disable rhgb.
* Boot into single-user mode and bypass "firstboot" entirely (on the
grub screen, hit "a" and add "single" to the kernel options). If that
sonves your problem, you could just remove firstboot (rpm -e firstboot)
and use system-config-display and system-config-soundcard to set up video
and sound. Then, use useradd to add a user account for you to work with
on a daily basis.
