Installation of FC4 x86_64 and Rawhide(260905) x86_64 via NFS are successful, so the network interface does work but when the machine is restarted for the first time and the lines

Starting udev:                        [ OK ]

hrmph, we've yet to do a release where some broken module hasn't caused this.

usually I ask the reporter to modify /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit so that the
load_module() function has a 

echo $1

just before the modprobe line.

sometimes this shows us the bogus module, sometimes it makes the problem hide.
Lets hope your case is the former..

I installed a more recent build of Rawhide and this problem no longer occurs.
