F10 - method= option

[Michael D. Setzer II]

In past version, one could copy the dvd files to an ftp server, and burn the 
boot.iso file to be able to do a ftp install. It appears that now one must boot 
for the cd, and edit the boot line and add method=ftp://server/directory

Seems to work, but not sure why the installation process was changed?

Second, On the system I am testing on, after the installation, login to the 
Xwindow with the root id fails with an authentication error.  I can login with a 
regular user, and su - work with the same password.
