Please don't jump to conclusions.
How about reading the chkrootkit documentation files first?
Especially the one added by Fedora.
The warning about /sbin/init is a false positive:
http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/chkrootkit
The other one may need further investigation, but as chkrootkit is just an
old shell script that isn't 100%, it could be a false positive, too. It's
meant to help you, not to take over all of the work.
