The "rescue image" is on the install CD/DVD that you just booted. The process is now general enough that you could have booted from boot.iso, pxeboot, usb stick or other image, which contain only enough to boot, and not enough to perform rescue operations. In those cases you need to find the rest of the rescue software, which might be on nfs, http, ftp, CD/DVD, harddisk, ... > > If it's the former (which seems counterintuitive), selecting "Local > CDROM" at this point causes the DVD to eject. Re-load the install CD/DVD, which contains everything needed for rescue mode. Rescue mode should proceed. [You might have booted a boot.iso CD-ROM in order to get a recent Linux kernel, but still have the rescue software on another platter (which might be older, for instance.)] > > If it's the latter, the program (Anaconda?) demands to know the > location of a Fedora iso somewhere on my /dev/sda1 (/boot) or /dev/sda2 > (LVM /). > > This no longer seems to work like the rescue feature I'm accustomed > to. The ability to use an install CD/DVD for rescue mode is new.
