This vfat problem happened on a machine that I setup at work. Since this 
problem was easy to simulate. (just trying to mount a vfat partition 
during install / upgrade, pass or fail) I decided to wait for the FC3T2 
CD to come out. I don't have any vfat partitions on any of the other 
test machines.
I could probably try an ftp install and designate a mini partition as 
vfat to ensure that the bug was fixed in rawhide.
I might give this a shot soon. I was going to try a clean install w/ 
selinux enabled next. I'm curious as to how the work has proceeded since 
FC2tests.
