I am getting very frustrated. It's hard to find the beta information 
from the fedoraproject.org.

I've been mucking around for over 15 minutes and not found how to 
install this stuff on the web.

Previously, at the boot screen one could use the F<n> keys to get 
information about trying to circumvent boot options, but not now. They 
don't do anything.

I don't see anything in the ISO image to help me. The REAME that used to 
be there isn't.

The release notes (and much of what I found on the fedoraproject site) 
refers to F7. I don't know how much to believe.
