The workaround for a problem I had installing f7 on a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop no longer works with f8. Sadly, it worked with f8t3, so I think something was broken in the mean time. The "irqpoll" addition to the boot options no longer seems to help. My install pauses for several minutes saying "Loading ata_piix driver...". Then when it times out and brings me to the next menus, every key I press on the keyboard happens twice and I can't make the selections I want. Even if I could, I suspect the delay loading the ata_piix driver will prevent me from installing like it did in f7 anyway. This system is happily running f8t3 updated as of last week. It even says f8 werewolf. But I can't install f8. The pathetic thing is that this system was shipped with Ubuntu and can't install Fedora.
