FC4 does not work, "out of the box" for me; GUI/X11 fails

I tried that.

I am starting to get upset now.  Mike says to update
but how is this possible?  All I can do is to run the
fedora rescue disc and then what?  Do I run the up2date -u
in this mode after setting up the network connection?

Seems that whomever released this distro should throw away
the iso cds and create a BRAND NEW ONE.  This distro is very
very very hosed and buggy.  There are NO RECOVERY PATHs that
I can find and I have wasted too much time already trying to
fix what is very broken.
