Just curious about this with respect to the repo changes
(and from what I hear more changes yet to come).

Just before the repo disaster, I had to reinstall because
my disk died.

With the original DVD images still pointing to old repos,
what happens if someone has to reinstall in a few weeks
after all the planned repo changes are complete?

Does it "just work", or will they need some manual intervention
to get updates functioning on a system installed from
original DVDs?

Just curious - I'm hoping not to need to know :-).

FYI: for what it is worth, I (a nwebie) just did a reinstall of F9 from an image from July and had no problems. Had to do either packagekit update as user or yum as root to get everything through, but it appears that it does "just work" at this point. And, I might add, very painlessly.
