The last thing I see when booting up is "Starting udev", then I get a black XWindows screen with just the cursor.  The cursor moves with the mouse, and I let it sit there for 30 minutes hoping that Fedora would eventually boot up.  Nothing.  Finally, I hit <Ctrl><Alt><Backspace> to kill XWindows, it then takes me back to the system console screen and continues to boot up, and finally presents the Fedora XWindows Login screen.  This happens every time I reboot.

horribly broken kernel, it's being pulled from updates, and a 2109 is being
built right now.
