Really?
Yup. Same isolinux, same vmlinux, same initrd.img. At least it was
that way last I checked, back in FC1. I don't see why it would have
changed.
I couldn't boot from FC2test2 CD1, but I could boot with
boot.iso
from that same CD and install over network.
Did you do anything different when you burned boot.iso? Did you
actually check that your CD1 was burned correctly (since you couldn't
boot it, you'd have to run /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/checkisomd5
--verbose /dev/cdrom on a system that has anaconda-runtime installed)
