Fix up the centos

/etc/fstab

to contain the partition you use for swap, eg (change /dev/sda3 to match
your real swap partition),

/dev/sda3 swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

If you use LVM, ensure that the LVM path to your swap matches CentOS's
idea of the LVM path to your swap partition.

If you implemented opt as its own partition, do the same as above.

If not, you can mount your FC3 filesystem from inside CentOS, and use a
symlink from the opt in there to /opt in the CentOS root filesystem.
