We successfully tested driverloader-1.63 on kernel 2.6.2-1.87 (Fedora 
RPM) with Intel's 2100 centrino driver version 1.6.0.47 (available from 
toshiba's website).

I would suggest upgrading to the latest version of driverloader and 
Intel's driver. If after that it still hangs, then there is something 
different in the new fedora development kernel that affects your 
machine. Perhaps it would be useful to compare .85 and .87 to find out 
what changed.

Regards
Marc
