MBR issue:  run linux expert at the boot prompt, and when you get into the 
install, before you start installing the packages, hit alt+f2 to switch to 
the second console.  dd if=/dev/hda of=/root/mbr bs=512 count=1 should 
save your MBR into /root/mbr.  Hit alt+f7 to go back to your install (i'm 
assuming you are running graphical install).  After all the packages have 
been installed and before you reboot, go back into the console, and cat 
the saved mbr into /dev/hda.

As for yum, it's fixed as of today.  I'm not sure if the yum on FC4T1 
comes broken, but if it is, then up2date -u yum should clear that right 
up.
