If I had a working wifi driver I could do that, but then I wouldn't
need to do that. If rpmfusion could put the drivers for the kernel on
the Live-CD and Install DVD, which are not the same as are in
"updates" (current) kernels, a user could just put every one in a
directory, run createrepo, and put the result in a directory on the
install media. Then Fedora would not be distributing the drivers,
users able to use the drivers could get what they need quickly, and
we wouldn't be looking for all the bits which match the install
kernel but not the one used to burn the install media.
The process is cumbersome because the last bit of effort needed to
get the needed drivers in one place for easy use has not yet been
made.
My experience with rpmfusion is they use a repo layout mirroring Fedora's.
The release repos should stay fixed after the release and I would expect
drivers there to match what Fedora was released with.
