Ok, this is even stranger.
I installed a STOCK fc3 system. Same issue.
STOCK fc2 system. Same issue.
Something inherent to Fedora Core is just plain incompatible with this
motherboard.
It's not just a 2.6.11 or 2.6.9 kernel that's at fault.
Anyone have any ideas as to how, why, or what I can try to make this work?
If not, I'm going to be forced to leave Redhat entirely and go with
another distribution, something I really do not want to do - all my
system configurations are tailored for Fedora.

I opened a bugzilla for the FC4T3 problem (#159057) but have not
opened one for FC3 yet, as I blew away the FC3 install to try a
virgin FC4T3 install ... gotta go back and double verify the problem
before I go open bugzilla for that.
The weird thing is, the boot process DOES complete - but you have no
IO ... only thing I can guess is it's something that isn't
interacting with the Intel serverboard chipset properly.
If anyone has ideas on things to test, anything please let me know
and I'll give it a whirl.

what kernel version is that knoppix cd using?
Your issue seems rather 'special' since its happening for both fc3 and
the rawhide kernels.
Was a bug filed against fc3 at some point about this?
