sorry, I started an install yesterday at about 3PM, went out and came
back home, and it was still trying to resolve dependencies
this is not, but anyway lighter way

Or
Hangs, as in - takes an unexpectedly long time?.
The first may be a problem.
The second may just be a perception of a hang. Let it run for a while
and see if it finishes. An install has a lot of packages to verify
dependency checks on. Time required is dependent upon system (cpu speed,
memory, drive space, etc.) and installation (number of packages, etc).
Therefore it brings us to
numlock / capslock should respond i.e keyboard LED indicators should flip
in reasonable time (<60sec / <your paitience)
else it is deadlock if there is no HDD/CD/DVD activity
and what after that
UR not (tweaking) sharing swap space between FC4 and FC5.
Did U burn the disc at max speed, if all else fails, try a low speed burn or better may be a CD-LESS install. See other recent threads on some very good howto
Also the other suggestion is good that U remove ATI card and install with on-board VGA/AGP.
