Well, they ultimately use the packages that are in the repos, of course. There are some differences, though. The spins are done 'by hand' by the releng team, and we cherry-pick specific packages that aren't yet in the stable repos into the composes via the blocker/NTH bug processes. But sure, if you spin your own boot.iso and it happens to work well, by all means, use it. Nothing will explode. :) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
