Sorry to ask the obvious -- but it's a good burned disk, and a good
cdrom? Have you tried another cdrom drive?
Try to eliminate any extra hardware that might cause hangs (like
soundcard, etc -- although to be honest that's really a tip from years
ago when device drivers weren't so good)
Reseat everything...
Try to install a different distro, see if it's FC4...
I'll keep scratching my head if you can't figure it out.
