Fedora 12 installation hangs on Dell laptop

I was trying to install Fedora 12 on my system. I have Dell Vostro 1015 with 2 GB RAM. The installation hangs after running for some time. It does not hang at one particular place. I tried 3 or 4 times and every time it hanged at different places.

After going through their bug list, I found a bug about my problem. To see the bug information, go to bug.

They have given a work around which did not work for me but it did work for some people.

Update (01-Jul-2011):
This seems to be a known bug. Even, I have faced the same issue with FC14 also. Now, I am using Kubuntu and installed FC14 on Virtual Box in windows. So far so good for me. I wish they could resolve this issue.

Please see below link for the details on the bug here.
