Alan, I am expereincing this same issue, do I need to create a new iso with the updated kernel? Thanks. Mike
If you can remove the compaq card you should be able to install, upgrade to the kernel errata and then reinstall the card. That is probably the easiest approach.
fixed in FC3, (and soon FC2 update). Alan, this seems to still not be upstream as of 2.6.9 (havent checked 2.6.10rc)
