F16 Fails to boot, stops at addrconf (netdev_change): WLAN0

I installed Fedora 16 and it had been working fine for a couple days. I installed the 2nd round of updates today and now Fedora fails to boot. The loading "egg" screen loads all the way but when the egg is filled it fades out to a blank screen and nothing happens. I then used the GRUB prompt to load Fedora. The loading always seems to stop at:

##.###### addrconf (netdev_change): WLAN0: link becomes ready

and nothing seems to load after this. Any help with where I should go from here would be greatly appreciated. If not, I guess I can just reinstall.

Thanks

Since your system was working before the last update you could try the yum history
and rollback commands to return it to that state. Then maybe do selective updates
to try to isolate the problem package(s). Something related to networking, possibly.
