The installer currently does not support the GPT partition table used on
the Intel Macs. This will hopefully be fixed / enabled in FC6. 

For the time being, I am now using Ubuntu 6.06. I managed to get
installed and running on my new MacBook. With Fedora I could not get
past the disk partitioning.
