FC6T3 x86-64 booting issue

[Tomas Lanik]

The rescue mode in FC6T3 is rotten as well!
After trying to set up eth0 interface using DHCP it just spawns some 
"giberish" chars on me!!!!
The special char-art already appears when entering the shell in resue 
mode but this time really freezes the machine.
Awful stuff! after hangs forever so... bye bye yum followed by 
CTRL-ALT-DEL ---> Kernel Panic!!!
Will try setup the networking manually...
