It might be your initrd is corrupted, or rather, not corrupted but
just not right for your kernel+modules+partition configuration. What
exactly does your screen show when it's locked up? Does it complain
about a missing init? Or a missing root?
I managed to lock up a FC1 system by messing around with its
partitioning (I resized the root filesystem), and I managed to fix it
by booting into rescue mode with installation cds and running mkinitrd
anew for all of the different kernels installed. I also had to fiddle
around with grub's configuration files. The computer is at work now,
but I can check what I did if you like next tuesday, when I'm around
that particular machine.
