Help is greatly appreciated thanks.
Writing this from Ubuntu.
thanks in advance

First, if it's hanging during boot, you can sometimes use ^ALT-F2 to get to an alternate terminal and log in as root. Either that, or edit the boot options from Grub to add a 3 to the last line. (Going down to the line that starts with the word echo and using the left arrow to go up to the end of the preceding line is probably easiest.) This will get you into a CLI environment, if all goes properly. Once you're logged in as root, you can simply mask the ISDN service if you're not using it.

Thanks for the info.
I followed the instructions in : http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=204752
but must have missed something because Fedora 19 is now trash.
Will not even start to boot so I can't get to a terminal.

Unless I can get into things from Ubuntu, and I have no idea how to do that, it will probably mean a fresh install.

I had forgotten the difficulty and complexity of installing nvidia, it certainly brings back memories, I think the reason I decided to use Nouveau was because I was using Fedora as a test bed and updating with new releases.
Cheers
Roger
