I f@cked up my install by installing from the repos the nvidia prop. dkms driver 3.10 for my graphic card.
Instantly the screen blurred, so I had to do a cold restart.
Now it halts during boot without presenting a login prompt.

I come from LILO experience. No knowledge yet for editing Grub.

I have to add a line in a grub lst or conf and what is the content '... '?
Or can I do it at boot?
Can I make it a permanent option to choose (like in the old days ) ?

Can you provide your /boot/grub/menu.lst?
Maybe my file can help you.
timeout 5
color black/cyan yellow/cyan
gfxmenu (hd0,5)/boot/gfxmenu
default 0
title linux
kernel (hd0,5)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux root=UUID=be7a5732-373e-44a7-9bde-24b8d05bf5dd nokmsboot logo.nologo quiet splash=silent vga=788
root (hd0,5)
initrd /boot/initrd.img
Dimon, thnx for offering.
I have to start a live ISO in order to get menu.lst information.
I hope there is another way such as with a boot entry.

1) start booting your ROSA
2) right after start press E while the 'ROSA Desktop.Fresh 2012' is highlighted
3) appent '1' or 's' after 'splash=silent' (move the cursor to the end of the string then move it left with the left arrow key. You shoul get this:
4) hit F10
5) after that you'll boot into the single mode
while in single mode you may restore whatever you want to, plase google for the instructions.
If not -- ask here.

Thank you for the screenshots that made it clear.
Today I did a 'fresh' install of 2012.1desktop.fresh
Wiki brought me also this sollution plus via KDE Config an easy (GUI) way to make a permanent entry for safe mode in grub.
