Ok, maybe if I could figure out what to download from ATRPMS to turn my fc4
x86_64 installed kernel into 2.6.14 or 15 I could work around this.  I tried
downloading and installing one of the kernel rpm's using rpm -i but some
dependency failed.  So, the contest is:  Who can give me the easiest way to
take a plain fc4 x86_64 install (which gives you 2.6.11) using an nforce
integrated nic which does work (just not under this install) and get me up
so I can use Jarod's guide to install myth.  Anyone?
