I, personally, have repeatedly run into this issue.  The correct step
is to boot an Apple recover CD and correctly format the drive with a
proper "blessed" Apple disc label (which should show up in /dev/hda1)

Then, during the FC5 install, manually create your partitions to look like this:
(Warning: *Do Not* mess with or change hda1!!!)

/dev/hda2 100MB /boot ext2 (must be hda2 and must be ext2)
/dev/hda3 (2x RAM) swap
/dev/hda4 / (the rest of the drive space.)

I have not been able to get any other layout to work.
