none of the boot.iso's from the original F8T1 release, August 9th, 10th,
or 12th would boot properly.
It would be nice if a network install could be done using the ps3_gelic
driver, although those iso's that did include the driver refused to use
it for a network install, even after it was manually loaded. The
boot.iso's also will not detect my usb drive unless I plug in a flash
drive as well; usb-storage will not load unless the flash drive is
plugged in... And some of the iso's could not even detect that there was
a CD-ROM drive in the PS3, let alone a hard drive. The boot image from
the 12th wouldn't even accept input from the keyboard. Up came the first
menu, and that's all she wrote.
As far as things outside the install go, the current kernel in rawhide
(kernel-2.6.23-0.96.rc2.git2.fc8) also does not boot at all. I am using
the most current F7 kernel (kernel-2.6.22.1-41.fc7) instead, and aside
from that most things seem to be working surprisingly well, although
sound is not working, and the Compatch Flash reader does not seem to be
working either. The CF reader goes back and forth with every update it
seems, unfortunately...
On the plus side the version of udev in rawhide (udev-114-1.fc8) works
quite well, and since it will mount my USB disks properly, where the
latest version in F7 will not, I've gone ahead and installed it on my F7
install as well. It works much better there as well.
