I survived the F18 new installer debacle OK, but this > is a bit rough. Anybody seen this? Same thing happens with the full x86_64 install DVD. Both images match their respective checksums and both are mountable under F17. Now, I've been a Unix admin since the SunOS 2.x days. I was peripherally involved in the porting of Minix to 32-bit mode before Linux ever existed. I've been running Linux since around the 0.9.5 kernel. With all that experience, I know it's possible that I'm doing something stupid. I just don't see it. Does anybody have a clue as to what might be going on?
