I think Daniel just basically did what the earlier instructions said and
made it available. (Note that the F17 instructions point toward an F16
image.) That's a great start, but now we want to move to making it official.

Yeah, we want to do something like that anyway, at the very minimum because
having a "launch" button is very slick.

syslinux installation (and figuring out updates with kernel updates?) is
another path to think about.
