Probably - but first, could you try booting the iso at http://pjones.fedorapeople.org/sb/boot-sb4.iso ? It's using a boot process that's a bit different (and more like what F18 will have), so and the code is different enough that there's some chance any given bug is incidentally fixed. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
