Re: Problem after install
Check the X logs in /var/log/X*, but if you don't need the X interface, change the default runlevel down to 3 (modify '/etc/inittab', change the 'initdefault' line).

Re: Problem after install
What is the last thing you see during the boot up?

Re: Problem after install
/etc/inittab is definitely not the problem, but one application spawned by mingetty at login. I can only assume that the problem is somewhere in the authentication chain (maybe pam, since util-linux, which provides /bin/login does not seem to be updated). Maybe /var/log/secure and/or messages can provide more details. You could also try to setup syslog to (temporary) spew the messages on a console, so that you can see them even if not logged in. You can do that by editing /etc/syslog.conf and adding a line similar to one of the following:
kern.* /dev/console
*.info;authpriv.* /dev/console
If this clutters the screen, just replace /dev/console with one of the ttys (/dev/tty7 for instance). You might also wish to replace priority level "info" with "debug". See man syslog.conf for details.
If you have the time, try to see which rpm packages are actually different in the x86_64 tree (versus the i386) and try to isolate the culprit.

Re: Problem after install
You can also fix that problem by installing the mingetty package and replacing all your getty entries in /etc/inittab with mingetty.

SolutionI have the same inittab on hundreds of computers, using Athlon64 / Barton / Athlon processors and distributions since RH 7.2 till FC 4 and RHEL 3 & 4...
Since the error appears after login attempts, I would say it's rather obvious that the problem lies in the applications spawned by mingetty.
