No I'm not. Seems clear and concise to me. But I'll restate it for you. The iso is loop mounted on a nfs server, which virt-install/virt-manager is told about through using nfs:192.168.0.1:/mnt as an argument. Previous versions of the distro had a Fedora directory at the root of the dvd iso. f8test2 does not, therefore, the install fails.
Yes, but you said that sniffing nfs showed you the installer mounting the iso? As in loopback mounting the iso, or that it mounted the nfs directory where the iso was pre-mounted?
This may be a regression due to making the package directory more generic (s/Fedora/Packages/), but loopback mounted NFS installs are not nearly tested as much as exploaded tree NFS, or unmounted isos in a NFS directory method. If you don't loopback mount the iso and instead just nfs share the directory that has the .iso file in it, does your install proceed?
