openSUSE doesn't boot at all

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do a fresh installation of openSUSE 11.4
2. Start openSUSE
Actual Results:  
openSUSE doesn't boot at all.

After choosing the normal "openSUSE 11.4" entry in the boot menu, I see:

doing fast boot
Creating device nodes with udev
_

Nothing more happens. The computer hangs.

Expected Results:  
openSUSE boots normally.

Adding "nomodeset" to the kernel parameters solves the problem.

(The "failsafe" versions was working, so I was trying out which parameter of
the "failsafe" entry made openSUSE working, and it seems that it was
"nomodeset".)
