Not sure what you mean by "still the case," it was as of 1PM yesterday when I posted, and since it's burned on DVD I doubt it's changes. Some systems refuse to install without network.

That was the response I got when I reported the bug before, "Can't reproduce" and "WFM" don't cover the ground with anything but a hard fail on all systems. And "you must be doing something wrong" really doesn't fit a process which consists of "load DVD" followed by "power on." I've been installing Linux since it hit usenet in 91 or so, and it works on other systems. It's clearly a Fedora bug, does not happen on the same machine with Mint, Ubuntu, or Puppy, and the other machine which has this issue installed Slackware fine. Note: after installing Slackware the problem went away, installing Ubentu didn't fix the machine of interest.
