Just a follow up.  The mediacheck is still broken in FC4t1.  Downloaded and 
burned the DVD iso yesterday.  Running sha1sum on all checked out.

When I performed the install and did the media check it failed that test.  
BUT, when I again started to install and skipped the media check the 
installation completed with no apparent errors.  There do seem to be a few 
bugs to be worked out yet but after all, this is a test version.

I did a complete install and a manual partitioning of the hard drives.  I have 
several partitions that I keep personal data, project data, downloads and 
source files on.  I don't format those partitions or the /home/tom (my 
personal stuff) so that I still have it after the install.  

Most of the bugs I have encountered so far have been with KDE.  FC4t1 is 
shipping with a beta version of KDE 3.4.  Doing a full install but keeping 
the prior /~/.kde settings, I may be inducing some of the bugs myself.  I'll 
be checking that in the next few days.  

Theres also a problem with the ntpd daemon failing to start which I haven't 
found yet.
