I didn't try the beta, but I was able to get 4RC1 to install on a
Dell Precision Workstation 370n and a Dell PowerEdge SC420 via
PXE.

The only issues I had with these systems involved tweaking my
kickstart files to use sda instead of hda and tweaking the BIOS to
get the disks to show up.  (The BIOS shipped with the SATA
interface doing RAID with magic drives and then AHCI, and I had to
change it to RAID/ATA.)

I haven't tried the final release yet, nor have I tried it on any
older machines, but I probably will soon.
