Ummm...  that is pretty old hardware.  I understand it still works, but
it is still old.    Have you looked through the logs for errors? (on
install there used to be a virt console with logs of the installation
process)  Have you tried the FC7 Live CD to see if it is a hardware
compatibility issue?  I am downloading it now to check it out.
