Dear Visham,

I faced a problem with iptables after upgrading to a recent
kernel. 
However, the original Fedora install booted just fine.

I went through some online forums and found somebody
suggesting that I
1. comment all my iptables rules (/etc/sysconfig/iptables);
2. uncomment/enable one rule
3. restart iptables
4. look for a failure message

One subsequent rule showed that I had a "-m state"
specified, but no 
kernel module compiled for it. I just ran the "make
menuconfig" again; 
went through all the options under Networking ->
Netfilter configuration 
and enabled all modules (just to be safe). Enable specific
modules to 
your requirement.

I am not sure if this solves your problem; it solved mine.
