Here an immediate bug that may hamper testing for some.  If at boot
it halts with:
   No root device found

   Boot has failed, sleeping forever."


This appears to be: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=520207
    Filesystem label does not match kernel command line parameter

Also reported here: Bug 521471 Computer won't boot F12 snapshot 1

The work-around is to change the boot line fragment:
      root=live:LABEL=F12-Snap1-i686-Live
to   root=live:LABEL=F12-i686"

Hope this helps someone else.

Cheers,
