The stock Fedora Core 4 kernel support appletalk by default, you just 
have to type

modprobe appletalk

at the command line.

And what I did on one of my machines, is I edited the /etc/modprobe.conf 
file to include

alias appletalk appletalk

That should load the appletalk kernel module.

Then, just add netatalk via yum and you're all set.
