The current status is this.
1. The 32-bit F8 rescue CD does not work on 64-bit systems. However, the 
64-bit F8 rescue does work.
2. Andrew's .65 kernel works as well as the .64 kernel. THey don't find 
my disk drives, although they do find the interfaces.
3. In my downloaded yum cache I have two kernels, the one installed with 
the yum upgrade, and a older one. I installed the old one and that 
allows me to boot.
4. No desktop works with selinux enforcing. Not even for root. More later.
5. Once booting to runlevel 5, I cannot switch to other consoles using 
control-alt-Fn. This _might_ be partly because of something that I've 
done, but if it's not I'm really not happy.

My first impression of KDE4 is it's a shocker. Ugly and hard to use. 
More later. atm it's locked up.
