This will be addressed in anaconda-12.16 or newer. Fedora 12 Alpha ships with
anaconda-12.15.
When I tried installing after just downloading CD1, it said 12.16. (I
didn't try with boot or net.iso, is it possible they're running with
12.15?
Very odd. I've repeated the same on the i386 and x86_64 disc1.iso and
see anaconda-12.15.
Can you confirm the sha256sum for the disc1 media you are using? Does
it match the official checksums [1]? Are you booting and installing
from the physical media (not booting the media, and installing from
rawhide)?
Thanks,
James
