The 7200 is supported by the 'radeon' driver. As such you should be able
to install okay. Having said that I did read somewhere about some people
having to install in text mode, and then run 'system-config-display'
afterwards in order to configure the card/monitor.

If your pc locks up using the radeon driver then I would report it in the
FC bugzilla. If you are using the ATI drivers then I can't really suggest
anything, except perhaps reporting it to ATI to see what they say.
