Just finished installing Fedora Core 4 onto VPC for the Mac.
At the first it crashes with "Unrecoverable Error"
Any ideas?

Fedora Core 4 will install natively on your Mac. No need to install it
in VPC.

Your Fedora Linux distribution has to be re-compiled to
work on a Pentium II processor, then re-packaged into
a CD distributon that can be installed.

In other words, it's doable, but it's a big job! Maybe
ask the Fedora maintainers if they are willing to release
such an installation package? Even then, there may be no
guarantees that this will work, because it could also
depend on what the installer is doing to the "hardware".
