I agree with Dinesh, Your HW has changed from 32 bit to 64 bit, your
disk geometry has changed. I suggest a 64 bit Linux. I have 64 bit
Debian Sarge DVDs (courtesy Dinesh Shah that I can pass on to you -
contact me off list if interested).
However, if you want to tinker around then go for an AMD64 optimized
kernel and more importantly with an initrd customized with device
drivers for the AMD64 mobo.

Till a couple of days ago I had a Intel Pentium
3 processor and a
80 GB hdd installed with FC4 , all was well then . Now I got an
AMD Athlon 64 bit 2800+ processor and a new 80 GB hdd . On the new
hdd i ceated a ext2 partition and copied the whole FC4 file system to
the new partition on the new hdd . Got grub installed , the issue is
after the kernel starts booting I get the following message :
WARNING Can't access (null)
exec of init ((null)) failed : 14
kernel panic
HeLppp!! Thanks in Advance
IMHO, you should create a new partition and copy the /home folder and do
a completely new install. The installer will autodetect your hardware
install the best (optimized) kernel for your hardware...
