Does anaconda check package signatures for the netinstall?
I believe so. Checksums are definately checked (RPM won't install a
corrupt package).
Are you sure that signatures are checked? If so, why this feature?

Does netinstall even work well?
Certainly. I actually haven't installed Fedora (or RHEL/CentOS) any
other way in a long time (probably at least 5 years). Just about
all of
the RHEL/CentOS installs, and some of the Fedora installs, were from
kickstart, but most of the Fedora installs were interactive.
For F18 I planned to do netinstalls on a dozen or so desktop
workstations and a couple of new servers, using our internal trusted
Fedora repo. After specifying our internal repo as the source,
netinstall would not allow me to choose the software to install --
all I got was the yellow triangle on the summary page, and blank
pages where I should have been able to choose "Gnome desktop",
"network server", etc.
I would say that sounds like there was something wrong with your repo.
The repo works fine for yum after installation.
Have you tried doing a netinstall from a specific mirror that you
specified in the source spoke of anaconda rather than using the pre-
configured repo? Did it work?
I am going to take Rahul's earlier suggestion and try the current F19
TC this weekend to see if I get any better result.
