After installation , the grub is not loaded and i had to manually go and configure (in rescue mode) to start GRUB (on MBR) 2.

Fedora Core 2 ships with Xorg X11 (xorg-x11), and not XFree86, so when filing your new bug report for the X server/driver issue, please be sure to file it against the "xorg-x11" component.
