Maybe for F18 if I can figure out a way to do it that wouldn't confuse the heck out of everyone already using live to do their install.s The reason why I dislike liveinst is that by launching it from a running system the environment setup for it isn't as consistent as when it is run from a DVD or netinst.iso install environment. This results in odd bugs related to liveinst that don't show up in the normal install path. -- Brian C. Lane | Anaconda Team | IRC: bcl #anaconda | Port Orchard, WA (PST8PDT)
