So you have to choose: either you can power on or you can power off. :-)

More seriously, I suppose your Fedora already has all the updates, is there
any BIOS update available for your pc?

Do you have any hints about where the problem could be? (try removing "rhgb", "quiet"
and so on from the grub command line so you can see all the kernel output).
