indeed...
That bug, 739632 mentions nothing about nvidia, and I am pretty sure
this has something to do with nvidia.
I was able to get the April 25 livecd to install, but rebooting after
install just shows the splash screen and then it sits there forever.
If i remove "quiet" and "splash" from the grub kernel line i see it
will get to "loading fallback graphics... [fail] and then a few lines
later it will stop and sit there, probably when the display manager
should have started...
I was able to mount the drive from within windows and i can attach the
/var/log/installer/syslog file, i notice these lines from it, it seems
to be asking it I want to load the kernel module but perhaps there is
no way to say yes since it is not interactive? just guessing:
