I am suspecting that certain motherboards are not supported. In my
case its "ASRock" motherboard for P4 with Hyperthreading capabilities
and I had no luck installing FC5 or FC4 in this machine. It stops at
certain point after vmlinuz starts. I had posted this message long
time ago but no answer from anybody. Please have a look at this:
