You're right. Apparently, i patched in the reverse order.

Also, after our discussion on #fedora-livecd, it appears that the
anaconda.patch for FC4 causes this problem. It would be better to actually
fix anaconda.patch for those on FC4. Attached is teh corrected
anaconda.patch. This makes 08inittab.sh and 09xorg.sh unneccessary.

 I'll look into rhgb parameter passing more... i think i have a neat
solution for it.
