likely what happened is when you installed FC3, you enabled SELinux.   
The old filesystem built in FC1 was not formatted with the SELinux  
metadata, so the new OS won't let you access the data stored in the  
old filesystem.

There are some FAQs out there for updating the filesystem, but I  
can't find it right now, sorry.
