I've never seen an error like this :-) It would seem that you have a
module named in your /etc/modules.conf that is not part of the Planet
CCRMA kernel (I just confirmed that in my fc1 test machine). Apparently
you have a scsi card? (that is what needs the ata_piix driver). What
card is it? It may have a driver in the normal kernel that has a
different name. 

An easy way out would be to try the Fedora Core 1 kernel with
capabilities that is also part of Planet CCRMA, that should install with
no problems as it is almost the same as the Fedora kernel.
