It does boot off the cdrom (the default boot order is the usual one, which tries the floppy first, then the cdrom, then the HD). The x86_64 version works as expected, bringing up the install screen. I got the command line down to the shortest possible one. I believe Fedora-12-ppc-DVD.iso is 32-bit (sha256sum is 800ef4f121e178dcc9c8dc128825021949abe0d6d029f36cd47e39a4033c3aaa).
