I seem to have missed that. I pulled in the CD, and have booted one
machine here sucessfully. On shutdown, the system did not eject the
CD, so I was stuck with a CD in a powered down CD drive. I trust the
maintainers have already figured that one out. Other than that, my
limited testing showed no problems.
I had boot problems on another machine, which I believe are related to
the fact that the CD-ROM drive is at hdb instead of the more common
hdc.
In my experience there is something basically wrong with the CD
reading part of Fedora CDs, as many people report problems
installing Fedora this way.
I did not test the installation.
