I have installed TC4 netinst a couple of times.
The problem with the screen going black during the default install remains.
I did another install after changing "quiet" to "nomodeset" in netinst.
This install proceeded properly, albeit at reduced resolution.
(Modulo dealing with a non empty HD)
The resulting system ran smoothly but still at less than full 1920x1080 res.
I successfully installed both the current release and later beta test Nvidia
display drivers. Both worked properly doing the usual stuff for many hours
(WSPR, Audacity recording, LadyHeather in Wine).
Later I went back to the Noveau based HD to do some stuff and Noveau
spazzed out after about a half hour.
I haven't checked server functions but other than Anaconda it seems
the cow may be able to give milk.
On top of that when I last did a TC4 netinstall (2 days ago) I was unable to use the "closest mirror" option for selecting
software...I ended up using http and putting in a mirror to let me do the install. If "closest mirror" is an option than, darn it
all to heck, it should work and every time (as long as networking is set up, which, in my case, it was).

The last few times I've done F18 netinstall a working mirror was
selected automatically.
It disn't ask and I didn't tell.
I have no idea what mirror was chosen. The closest mirror may not be
the best anyway.
