I just tried to install TexLive 2007 on a F7 system which already has tetex 
following the instructions on this page
http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/files/texlive/__README__

I installed teckit and teckit-devel using the Fedora development repo. Then I 
ran
curl http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/files/texlive/packages/list | xargs -n1 
curl -O

followed by 
rpm -Uhv *.rpm

I got the following error since my arch is x86. 
error: Failed dependencies:
        libc.so.6()(64bit) is needed .......

So I just executed
rpm -Uhv *noarch.rpm

but I get the following error message

file /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/minitoc/estonian.mld from install of 
texlive-texmf-latex-2007-0.7.fc8 conflicts with file from package 
tetex-latex-3.0-39.fc7
        file /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/minitoc/ethiopia.mld from install of 
texlive-texmf-latex-2007-0.7.fc8 conflicts with file from package 
tetex-latex-3.0-39.fc7
        file /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/minitoc/ethiopian.mld from install of

The README file indicates that the tetex will be automatically uninstalled
"This will install the noarch and x86_64 packages to your system and replace 
tetex if it's already installed on your system."

Also I noticed that running this command
curl http://people.redhat.com/jnovy/files/texlive/packages/list | xargs -n1 
curl -O
downloaded the following rpms

texlive-2007-0.7.fc8.x86_64.rpm
texlive-afm-2007-0.7.fc8.x86_64.rpm
texlive-dvips-2007-0.7.fc8.x86_64.rpm
texlive-dviutils-2007-0.7.fc8.x86_64.rpm
texlive-fonts-2007-0.7.fc8.x86_64.rpm
texlive-latex-2007-0.7.fc8.x86_64.rpm
texlive-texmf-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-afm-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-common-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-dvips-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-errata-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-errata-afm-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-errata-common-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-errata-dvips-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-errata-fonts-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-errata-latex-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-fonts-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-texmf-latex-2007-0.7.fc8.noarch.rpm
texlive-xdvi-2007-0.7.fc8.x86_64.rpm

and this list does not have "texlive-2007*.noarch.rpm". Is there something 
wrong with my installation procedure. I am also eager to see texlive in F8.
