 I get that if I haven't run 'modprobe loop', because in my .config
I have CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=m.  Try that - I don't know if fedora
includes loopback.

 If it does, mkrescue ought to be worth doing, but of course you
will need a version of cdrecord to burn the iso (or do that from
FC5), and as always with boot CDs, CDRW is recommended until you
know it works.
