this time i've created a boot partition.and did not give grub a password.and did not use the command "linux ide=nodma" while installing:ignored the mediacheck failure.
and the happy end :)
but some errors came "firstboot" to be posted to bugzilla.
thanks all!

Well people.can't anyone really help me?
i have posted the problem several times.but no one has replied.
my problem is after installing FC3 (and could achieve the mediacheck with the "linux ide=nodma" command) GRUB failed to boot.and after i rewrote the mbr with WinXp cd.and can now use Xp.
my grub.conf file is like that:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
# root (hd0,1)
# kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda2
# initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
