If you install a linux application then linux_base-fc4 will be installed as a dependency. This is the most stable version since it's intended to work with 2.4 kernel emulation. If you want to try one of the later fedora[-core] ports, which use 2.6 kernel emulation, you need to read UPDATING. I'm not sure how well Flash 9 actually works under 2.6 kernel emulation, but it doesn't work well under 2.4. Flash 7 work under either.
