I am having this same problem. i was able to install fc3 onto my external usb drive but when i attempt to boot from it, it gives me the panic message and i can't get past it. i read about creating a new initrd file but the commands listed to do so don't work on my machine. i get a drive is busy error or something to that affect. sorry about the vagueness, i'm at work and don't have the exact error messages.
