This is the same situation I am facing on a testing machine after a
yum/apt-based update from FC2 to FC3test2.

Now, I can't get into this machine anymore, not even if using
init=/sbin/sh works, nor have I been able to boot this machine from
CDROM.

(Probably due to the missing console, I am not even able to properly
shutdown this machine. The 3-finger-salute does not seem to react
anymore). :(
