           Summary: RELNOTES - Summarize the release note suggestion/content
           Product: Fedora Documentation
           Version: devel
          Platform: ppc64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: normal
         Component: release-notes
        AssignedTo: relnotes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: nag@xxxxxxxxxx

The release notes stats that IBM pSeries machines, which has the POWER5
processors, are supported - great.

pSeries machines can be used in three ways:
1) Stand alone as a SMP machine.
2) Using Logical Partitions with physical resources like real SCSI disks and
Ethernet.
3) Using Logical Partitions with virtual resources like using ibmvscsi and
ibmveth drivers.

It is not clear in the release notes which modes are supported.

I have just tried virtual resources - failed with unable to read package
metadata, failure with a reference to repodata/comps.xml from anaconda Errno 256

I have just tried with physical resources - hangs loading a DAC960 driver, which
is a RAID SCSI card.

If you clarify which modes and hardware Fedora5 has been tested on, we might
avoid many frustrations in Fedora users.
