I have also very similar problem. My machine have xp and fc6.  If I
start the machine from cold directly to fc6, it freezes right when it
tries to start x. it draws like one inch by one inch white box at the
center. But if I go to xp then reboot and go to fc6 from grub, it
works fine.  I had this for about two months now. My machine if i386,
Celeron.  It was running Fc from FC2 with out any problem.  I don't
even know against what application to file the bug.
