I finally fixed the ftp installation for complete development rpms. It
seems that everything is working past the intird and LABEL issue.
The list of recently announced updates showed up in up2date and
installed without any issues.
This post was in reference to the previous distribution size issue.
excerpt below:
I just did an ftp install of Rawhide on this machine. I think that
mkinitrd is one of the items that need to be corrected. The ftp install
of devevelopment went through in about 4 hours time from the
download.fedora.redhat.com site and using the
/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386 directory to retrieve the
information. This was a server installation and was a clean install. I
haven't booted into it yet to see what it will do. The initrd error
caused me a few detours. I installed lilo because I wrecked grub when
trying to reinstall it on my drive. I have to configure lilo to boot the
newly installed ftp retrieved installation.
On a detour, I installed the rawhide rpms on two different machines as
an upgrade. I have found problems with kudzu, python related programs
up2date and one or two documentation rpms. The program conflict count is
only about 30 programs. Most of the other programs seem to work fine on
both machines. If I get the ftp installation booting, I'll see the
errors with that machine.
Some excerpts from the install log are included below:

Happy to have a mostly working rawhide distro.
