I did a quick search on the net and have found a few other threads 
about this.  The claims seem to indicate this breaks GRUB, yet I use 
GRUB without a problem in this configuration.  I have 1Gb of RAM, so 
maybe that helps -- although I wouldn't think so given the information 
I've seen so far.  Is it possible the version of GRUB that comes with 
Fedora Core 1 is new enough to support the 2.0.3 protocol that gets 
around this issue?

Oh well... I suppose I won't worry about it too much since it seems to 
be working...
