This was a problem identified in Linux Journal but I could not get
anyone to get to exited about it so I dropped it.

Are both the FC5 and FC4 in the same LVN. If so you have a problem. If
not the solution is easy. Relabel the FC4 disk or use its /dev/hdx to
mount it somewhere else.

Please clarify the problem a little more.
