F10A boot.iso bug?

Looks like Fedora 10 Alpha boot.iso may have a bug.

When I boot from the cd and select ok instead of skip and then select eject
it ejects the cd, but once I do that I can never get it to take the cd back.

I have to reboot to be able to see the cd again.

Also it does fail the media check, but seems to work fine otherwise.

I tried the boot.iso on VirtualBox and it passes the media test, so maybe I
have an issue with the burn with Nero.

 

So what is the deal with boot.iso?  It is like 104M which is much bigger
than 7-9Mb that Red Hat 5 or Fedora 8 is.

And it doesn't give me an option to do an NFS or URL install, so I am
guessing that it does the install over the network?

Or I am guessing that I have to use the method or ks option on the command
line when I boot?

Looks like it changed in Fedora 9.

 

I am not sure I like the larger image.  Not a great thing when doing a boot
on an iLo over a wan and want to do local nfs install.
