I burnt the DVD for FC6 T1.
I used the media check of the installer and the DVD passed.
I use "linux text" as the install mode. This proceeded until as
expected until it went to format the disc. Then the install failed.
I retried the proceed 3 times with the same result each time.
I then attempted the default graphical install (UGH).
I selected all pkgs and 'custom now'. I select everything except the
language options (selected 11 out of 36 possibilities).
I selected activate eth0 at boot time. I specified the host name and
the host IP/mask. The installer warned I had not specified the gateway,
but did not offer a method to define the gateway.
When the install completed, I had not network connectivity.
===
I then restarted the install, and tried manual vs DHCP for initializing
the network. Only DHCP would define the gateway. While I would supply
the parms to the MANUAL mode, the install warned I had NO gateway
specified. This is a useless configuration for me as I always specify
the host name and IP/mask manually. Thus I will be waiting for FC6 T2
to see if there is anything useful in the install version.
