I did not do all the above hints, but I did partition my disc in Knoppix. I had to do this because my machine had no spare partition to load onto and I did not want to reinstall Windows XP. Yes I have a backup, but we're talking about close to a days worth of reloading and locating files just to have the system close to the way I have it now!
Anywayz, after resizing the partition with Knoppix 3.4 down by 8 GB (I would have gone larger, but QTParted complained that the disc was fragmented even though I'd just run defrag several times) I was able to install FC2 onto the spare partitions.
Also, I used QTParted to create my swap and / partition as I was there already and didn't see the need to partition twice
