I can start live version, no problem. The installation goes fine, but after.... Comes only black screen with text cursor top left of the screen and that is it. Nothing is working, I was waiting in this state about 15 min nothing happens. Any idea? Any suggestion?

When starting live version I get errors:

dracut-pre-udev[375]: rpc.idmapd: conf_reinit: open ("(null)", RDONLY) failed Coud it be related?

As I been asked in comments about video card. Could it be because of the video card???

lspci | grep VGA gives the answer: 00:01.0 VGA compatoble controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. AMD/ATI Richland Radeon HD 8650G

Thanks in advance.

Im not exactly sure, but I believe nVidia Radeon... is it possible to find out somehow with Fedora live?

Run lspci | grep VGA in a terminal to find out for sure.

I had same problem, but that was sandisk USB stick fault. With different USB stick installation went well and system loaded.

I had exactly the same issues..install was fine but when restarting after a successful install, it went in to emergency mode...I tried it again about 4 times...each time with the install routine partitioning the Disk on "automatic" mode..... After the 4th time I looked and noticed that the Boot partion was not active.... So, I went back into install and did a "Custom" and defined the partitions myself....And Boff..worked like a treat and booted into fedora find.... Hope thais helps

I tried this already. You say boot partition wasn't active, what do you mean? When I was doing custom partitions I chose boot partition, but the same problem. Maybe I didn't mark it as active somehow?

An active partition is one you can boot from, and each drive can only have one. However, only Windows pays any attention to it, so it doesn't really matter unless you're dual booting.

That is for sure not this, I tried again yesterday. It is booting, it goes up to the screen there I can choose fedora or that rescue mode. I can even start command prompt/GRUB but after choosing system it stops :(
