I don't usually have to do this, but a recent OS upgrade broke my existing F22 setup on some weird graphics card i had. So, to get into your machine, you can just boot it in text mode.
Doing this is easy but I figured I'd post it here for my own notes.
FIRST,
When the boot screen comes up, hit "e". This will allow you to edit the command so that it runs w/o graphics.
THEN. simply change
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=on rhgb quiet (change this to the below...)
TO
- kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=on rhgb quiet 3
Then hit F10. You should now boot into a fully functional terminal mode, where you can still run screen, tmux, startup SSHD and so on. FYI got this from
