Have a look at release notes:

http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/

In particular the 'Installation-Related Notes' point :
'Certain hardware configurations (particularly those with LCD 
displays) may experience problems while starting the Fedora Core 
installation program. In these instances, restart the installation, 
and add the "nofb" option to the boot command line.'

Read additional info at http://fedora.artoo.net  for more info.

Cheers,
Michael
