Doesn't seem to be limited to the x86_64 platform. I opened a bug report 
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=154757> in 
bugzilla. Posting the notification here in case anyone is interested.

Also, if someone happens to know a temporary fix just so I can get FC4T2 
installed on my system without having to burn a DVD ISO, I'd appreciate 
it if you let me/us know. I'm still hoping this is fixable by some 
kernel parameter.
