Mindblowingly difficult indeed, too much for this bear of little brain.
Time to figure a new course of action, but alas, both Arch and Gentoo
appear to require far more time than I have for setting up those systems.
As a matter of fact, I need only a base system - with a precompiled
Xorg, thank you - and the build-essential packages. I can then build the
apps I need.
It would certainly simplify things here if AV Linux were 64-bit savvy. ;)

the fundamental problem here is that Fedora uses
LVM as its default
partition type, and this is not supported by a variety of older/other
linux distributions.

IIUC, I should be able to mount the partition with the live disc, just
not with the mount command. My mind is near-crumbling anyway, I might
as well give it a final push.
