udev ? 2.6.15-1.1826 ?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=185796
have you disabled acpi in your bios or tried booting with acpi=off ?


did you read the releasenotes ?

<snip>

 ● Some Sony VAIO® notebook systems may experience problems installing Fedora
    Core from CD-ROM. If this happens, restart the installation process and add
    the following option to the boot command line:

    pci=off ide1=0x180,0x386

    This option allows the installation to proceed normally; any devices not
    detected due to the use of this option will be configured the first time
    Fedora Core is booted.
