Thank you.

Adding "nomodeset" to the linux boot line via editing GRUB, worked 3 out of 3 boots. That is excellent.
Not using "nomodeset" failed 4 out of 4 times. (just making sure I the problem still exists)

Aside: when I initially moved the machine that I just tested from its directly attached monitor/keyboard/mouse to 
my cube with the 4-way TRENDnet KVM, it actually booted up fine for the first time. Then failed on subsequent
times as expected. I may have seen that phenomena on other occasions. I felt like mentioning it may be important.

Also, when the first problem occurred, and I may have said this way above, I think, I booted up the 2 previous
kernels that were available to me on the GRUB menu and those failed as well. That's why I always thought it wasn't a kernel problem,
but I know nothing about all of this and who knows what I did so long ago. 

I will grab the BETA1 kernel, if possible, since I know the BETA1 LiveCD works and see if the older kernel
amongst all the newer packages works or not.
