Problems installing FC4 on Dell Optiplex GX620

I am having all kinds of problems installing FC4 on a Dell Optiplex GX620.
When I try and use the FC4 CDs, it fails to find the hard drive.  The
controller is the on board Intel SATA controller.  I know the hardware works
fine because I can install FC3 on the Dell and it works as long as the BIOS
is configured for combined mode.  If I do a yum update, the latest FC3
kernel fails to boot.

Does anyone know how to install FC4 on these boxes.  I suspect the latest
2.6.15 works as reported in
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~ushankar/linux-dell.html.  Does anyone know how
to replace the kernel on the FC4 CDs to get these systems to install
properly?
