That is exactly what the problem was, this occurred after an upgrade from 
FC1 to FC5.  I edited grub.conf to point to the FC5 kernel and it booted up 
OK.  Thanks to you and Peter for your assistance.

I encountered 2 other issues after system booted, but I'll research them 
first and if necessary open new threads for them.

Thanks again.
