To disable sendmail from startup use chkconfig sendmail off. You can use the switch --level for disabling it ofr particular levels.

For my fedora core2 If I just wait for long enough sometimes as much as 10 minutes............... the 'halt' in the system stops and this happens whenever there isn't proper net connection to the linux box , if the net connection is proper then there is no prob

This is a common problem with RH sendmail based systems. This means that your reverse DNS for your system is not configured properly. As a workaround you can try renaming /etc/resolv.conf to something else and this should solve your problem. But, then you need /etc/resolv.conf, if you surf the net. So, to remove sendmail from startup, use chkconfig.
"man chkconfig" should help you out here.
