You sure the mouse works? Batteries dead? You may need to do install with regular mouse and attach wireless
afterwards, I kind of remember doing this myself.
I use cordless logitech keyboard and mouse, only caveat is it doesn't start working till X starts, but I keep a junker keyboard connected as well.
From my xorg.conf, xorg replaced xfree in FC2.

If you have the /dev/input/mice information included in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, which is needed for ps2 mice using the 2.6 kernels that are compiled for Fedora, you might have to add this to your grub.conf file. I guess it reorders the process orders loaded during the kernel initializing. This helps synaptic touchpads, maybe it will help w/ your troubles with these ps2 mice.
add psmouse.proto=imps to your grub.conf file. Note the below example. I'm running a test installation, so don't copy in whole. This may or may not resolve your problem.
