as it turns out the source of all my issues was the dvd drive itself. I installed a 9 year old dvd reader and everything works with no boot options or bios changes . I dont know if the dvd writer is broken or just sucks . The drive is a SAMSUNG|SH-S202N 20X =-O

after fighting with the 'loading ata_piix driver' issue I managed to get fc8 installed via a usb dvd drive . the install went fine but now when I boot off the hd (sata) I eventually get
ata1.00 exception emask 0x0 sactt serr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
it then displays 'loading udev' and hangs
once again this problem (or some variant there of) has been reported lots but no clear indication of what to do.
I keep seeing references to the 'libpata' module having issues
It's great that the DVD got you further through the process. Apparently the Distribution linked below has a solution and a kernel available to remove the error.

According to the comment that led to the above link, it is fixed in the next kernel series 2.6.24.
The next release is up to that version kernel. I'm not sure if later kernels would have a backported fix in it or not. The changelog shows these for a search for ata. The bugs should be found in bugzilla.
