Sounds good. I can't find a rescue.iso under development at the
moment, though, so I'm going with (in order) trying to use rawhide
vmlinuz + initrd.img (replacing .buildstamp with the one from F8); and
if that doesn't work, actually replacing the F8 install kernel with
the rawhide installer kernel and ditto the modules in the initrd ...
