No, I had not seen that bugzilla entry, but after reading it I defined a
second CPU on my virtual machine, and the installation ran to
completion. So thank you for that. However, my user now tells me that
he's getting seg faults in yum, and that rpm simply doesn't work.
I'm leaving for holiday tomorrow, so I guess I'll start chasing this
again when I return. I must have done something very wrong if basic
things like yum and rpm generate seg faults!
Thanks again for your help,
Ray

I think you saw https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=970858
on coming up in layer2 mode, and thus fails, regardless of what I tell
it (i.e. LAYER2=0). I even tried LAYER2=NO and, just to be perverse,
LAYER2=1, but with no perceptible difference.
please try switching from the old network config to the dracut based
one, eg.
rd.znet=qeth,0.0.0800,0.0.0801,0.0.0802,layer2=0,portname=FOOBAR,portno=0
ip=192.168.100.100::192.168.100.1:24:fedora.example.com:eth0:none
as shown in the older release notes, "man dracut.cmdline" will describe
all the available options (same content on x86)
