I've the same motherboard in my desktop (though with DDR2-800 instead of
DDR2-667); and FC6 installed fine after I booted with the
"all-generic-ide pci=nommconfig" options. (I recently rebuilt this
install from F7Test3 and neither of these options are needed.)

Also, you'll need to have the Serial ATA access mode set to "AHCI" in
your bios.

Hope that helps.
