I installed fresh and /dev/hda1 and hda2 were reformatted. The other 
listed disks, like the sda disks were formatted during an fc3t1 install 
attempt. The hdb1 and hdb2 contain FC2. The hda5 is the boot partition 
from the corrupted installation, nothing was done with this partition 
yet. For the hdb6 partition with all of the errors mkfs was ran on it 
when booted up in FC2.

The attached pure.txt file is from the 541 before installing the 540 
downgraded kernel. The 540.dgrd.txt file is from rebooting into the 
retro kernel. I don't see a difference from the listing for each version.
