It looks like youre set to edit the boot-code. do cursor keys not let you select the linuxefi line ?? if they do, add a 2 at end of linuxefi line, it puts you to non-graphical boot once you do, can you report the absence of /sys/class/drm/* ? so far, none of my boots of the f29 kernels fill this dir, (on my 32bit core 2 duo vintage box) this caused window managers to fail hard. gdm just locked up. lightdm was a bit better, but got screen resolution wrong - minimal res, huge pointer, fonts what worked for me was a locally built kernel, localmodconfig, after copying /boot/config-mumble-f29 to .config this gets screen res correct > > > Try the troubleshooting and do the basic video install.
