I built and installed the package and made the following observations:

1. Since the spec file wants a file "initng-default-runlevel.patch" I downloaded
the file patch mentioned above and renamed the file. This works fine but I get
warnings when building the rpm:
...
Patch #0 (initng-default-runlevel.patch):
+ patch -p1 -b --suffix .default_runlevel -s
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
+ exit 0
...
Maybe the patch needs to be cleaned up so it applies without warnings.

2. During the (shockingly fast! 12sec!) boot process the console font is messed
up but gets fixed about half-way though. The lines that where output until then
stay messed up though which makes debugging a bit hard. There are some error
messages but I can't see which services they belong to due to the font problem.

3. USB isn't set up at all with the current settings and doing a 'ngc -u
system/usb' doesn't work because ist tries to bring up the USB host with
"modprobe usbcore" whereas Fedora seems to alias them as "usb-controller" and
"usb-controller1" on my system.

4. "daemon/xfs" needs to be added to "default.runlevel" or X11 cannot be started.

After these changes I was able to log in as root and call 'ngc -u gdm' which
brought up X nicely.

So far I'm *very* impressed by the results. Great work!
