The same thing happened to me with the F 7 Test 2 DVD. The process appeared to hang and asking for pata_amd. I got a kernel panic and I thought to myself, this is doomed. I left it for a while came back and the installation was successful. Give it some time, go burn some time come back and hopefully it goes through, if it does not work, please report back.
Thanks, Antonio. I have been patient and I have tried to install F7 a dozen of times at different moments, but the reported problem persists. An installation dvd that does not install anything is an useless installation dvd. I was not expecting such a thing from Fedora, to be honest. Paul
