1. First of all, as far as I notice, you are still using kernel
3.10.0-229.el7.x86_64, i.e. RHEL ( or a clone of RHEL ) 7.1, with
no updates. This is a very bad idea, you miss 8 months of security
updates. And sometimes (it's not the case now, though ) the packages
from elrepo are built against and require the kernel release
available in the most recent version of RHEL<br>

So far I have pushed the fglrx related packages (version 15.9,
15.11 and 15.12) only via my personal website or ( more recent) via
elrepo-testing because I am still hunting problems which can be
fixed via packaging approaches. So far this was a good idea, with
the help of several testers who reported problems via the list of
the bug tracker we isolated ( and fixed ) a couple of issues.<br>

.... this line indicates that you seem to boot in RESCUE mode which
does not invoke the magic added by the fglrx packages to the regular
kernel command line. <br>
<br>
So, first of all please reboot and start the system using the
regular menu entry, not in rescue mode. If you still have issues
after that, please pastebin again /var/log/Xorg.0.log and also
include /etc/grub2.cfg and /etc/default/grub<br>
<br>
<br>
And last but not least, please use the list for communication
purposes. Others may be interested ( or help ) as well.<br>
Thank you<br>

once installed and after the system fails to start the X server, push
the content of /var/log/Xorg.0.log to a pastebin (fpaste.org for
instance --- you could yum install fpaste from EPEL and then just run
"fpaste < /var/log/Xorg.0.log" ) and share the URL of the paste over here.
please also include the output of the following commands:
lspci
uname -a
rpm -qa \*fglrx\*
</pre>
