You can boot off the install cdrom as a rescue disk and run it from
there, no need to screw around with the vfat partition.
I had the same problem with 8.0, and reinstalled several times. I ended
up reconverting everything back to ext2.
Are there any plans to include sgi's xfs or ibm's jfs in the future, both
seem to be more stable than reiserfs (especially with flaky disk drives)
