The system hangs at this screen when boot is over
There is no way to log in to the system. Neither graphical nor text. The login prompt is vanished.

Shutdown or reboot cause a kernel panic
A three-finger salutation (ctrl-alt-del) or shutdown signal causes the system to emit a kernel exception.

Contents of /var/log/anaconda
Hopefully, I was able to boot in single user mode. In the attached zip archive anaconda.zip you may find /var/log/anaconda logs for further investigation. I haven't noticed any problem in the logs and the only weird things is that the system reports no F17 PAE kernel installed (rpm -qa). Either F17 is shipped with no kernel (unlikely scenario :)) or anaconda didn't force a kernel upgrade.
