For me not:
I'va a bit trouble to use 620900.img:
"https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Updates" says that it should be
an ext2 image, but using a file command I get "updates.img: gzip
compressed data, from Unix, last modified: Tue Aug 3 21:08:45 2010, max
compression", and trying gunzip produces an "ASCII cpio archive (SVR4
with no CRC)" as result.
Finally, I tried to install F14 after having dd'ed 62090.img to a floppy
as described, but after having answered in anaconda the question for
updates media to /dev/fd0, it is rejected by anaconda (no valid updates
media). Seems that I'm doing something wrong.
Sorry for the noise: I did not read the instructions completely :-(
620900.img is only usable with updates=http://... or updates=ftp://...
My mistake.
