There are many reasons who could lead into this kind of troubles.
What you can try is typing "expert" at the "boot: " process and ask someone to read what is printed out on the screen. I do not use Fedora Core and don't what /sbin/loader is intended to, but if it replaces init and doesn't want to start, it will be very difficult for you to have a successful install...
Try to come back with more detailed explainations of what happens when the problem arrives.
