Thank you very much for taking time to answer.  I did trace down a bug report, 
but it is closed at this point in time.

In point of fact, if I can download the next update of the the kernel 
2.6.10-something, then the problem goes away.  Which means to me that if i 
had an iso with the latest revision of kernel, then the system would work.  
and that is why I was wondering about that.

I loaded FC2 and it had no problem with identifying an ide drive as an ide 
drive.  But it does not support the ethernet chipset on the motherboard 
[sigh].  

However, with the sata drive formated by FC2, the FC3 installer finds it 
without problem.  I did the install of FC3,  but the 2.6.9 kernel panics when 
the handoff arrives.  So...  I am doing a minimum installation on an ide 
drive with FC3.  I will do an immediate kernel update,  rsync the sata drive 
to the ide drive, and then edit grub.conf.  [All of this with my fingers 
crossed. ;-)    Of course, I am open to suggestions, still.

Thanks again.
