  just starting a fresh install on another system, so i thought i'm
mention two glitches i ran across so far early in the install process.

  first, mediacheck still doesn't seem to work.  once again, i tried
to mediacheck disk 1 and got "FAIL".  but i used these same CDs on a
different system earlier today and everything went swimmingly.  is
mediacheck known to be broken again?

  second, regarding the failed NFS install.  after it failed, i
flipped back to VC3 to see the problem and verified that the mount
succeeded (the directory was mounted to /mnt/source), but then:

  "unable to access /mnt/source/Fedora/base/stage2.img"

well, that's not surprising since that directory is full of ISO
images, not an exploded source tree.  but someone earlier reported
that their NFS install worked just fine.  so i'm just confused.
