FC4 Kernal Panic on install right after entering 'linux text'

[Panama Jack]

Yep, that helped. :)  Everything installed...

Now all I need to do is find where php is at so I can rebuild the  
./configure with mysql and gd library settings enabled.  Starting to get  
this funny feeling I will have to download the php5 archive as the make  
directory isn't on the drives. :p
