Hi,

when I boot FC4 from the installation DVD, the boot messages read

Loading vmlinuz
Loading initrd.img
Ready

Then the screen becomes blank with a blinking cursor and the system is
locked up. The only thing I can do is reset the machine through the reset
button.

Any hints?

Sounds like a GUI issue. Try installing in text mode. It would also
be of help if you'd describe your system (motherboard make, hard drives,
memory, CPU, etc.)
