two questions:
1)   is it really as above
  linux install scsi_mod.scan=sync

  or should it be
  linux scsi_mod.scan=sync

fedora install docs say:

   To use boot options, enter linux option at the boot:  prompt
   If you specify more than one option, separate each of the options
   by a single space. For example:

   linux option1 option2 option3


2) my f10 dvd seems to have its boot:  command already filled in with

vmlinuz0 initrd0

something close to that  is what i see after hitting TAB.

Is the "linux option" supposed to be entered after that vmlinuz0 initrd0 ?
