I would be keen to see your hardware list because I thought I did pretty much the same thing -- picked a common and popular distro (Fedora Core), the most popular video card (Nvidia fx 5200), a popular motherboard chipset (NForce2) and other choices among the most tested (only the pcHDTV-3000 was relatively new at the time) and there were still a large number of issues. I was able to solve the issues, but that doesn't mean there weren't many. So if you have the hardware set for a zero issue install, I think many would appreciate a writeup. The main thing I could see doing differently might be to go with debian rather than Fedora.
