    Disc 7??
You didn't burn any iso's with SRPMS in the filename did you?  The 
install distro is on :

[   ]FC4-i386-disc1.iso <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc1.iso>              06-Jun-2005 22:54  635M 
[   ]FC4-i386-disc2.iso <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc2.iso>              06-Jun-2005 22:55  638M 
[   ]FC4-i386-disc3.iso <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc3.iso>              06-Jun-2005 22:56  638M 
[   ]FC4-i386-disc4.iso <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc4.iso>              06-Jun-2005 22:57  630M


There is an optional rescuecd and the source RPMs on the afore-mentioned 
FC4-i386-SRPMS-disc?.iso
