system logs

Description of problem:
I used desktop-x86_64-20100221.16.iso live image available from http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/desktop/. By default the system boots up, starts graphical mode, but it then waits infinitely with busy cursor. No background shows up, no list of users shows up. I don't know if the GDM is already started or not, but only a cursor on black screen is visible. That waits endlessly.

If I append enforcing=0 to the boot line, everything works, the system boots.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
included in the logs

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot the live image
2.
3.
