I successfully installed F8 at home, but I've been unable to get the installer to run on my Aspire here at work. It fails due a problem with the sata_sis driver, which is fixed in the latest F7 kernel update so I assume the current F8 kernel is fine too. Is it possible to simply boot from a different kernel (and update the modules in the initrd, of course) and run the installer? Or, if I need to update the stage 2 image as well, how do I point at the updated stage 2, and can I do so while still proceeding to fetch the install packages off the network?
I've never tried, but I suppose it might be possible to boot a F9 devel boot.iso, and try a network install, but point it at an F8 repo to fetch the stage2.img and packages.
