1. Do you have hexedit installed?  If not, yum install hexedit.
2. hexedit Fedora-9-Preview-i386-DVD.iso
3. /414c4c<enter>  (This will search for the word ALL.  The first ALL you find should be the one you want to change, but check comment 15 of the bug in bugzilla.)
4. 310a0a  (This will replace ALL with 1<new line><new line>.)
5. <Ctrl>-X  (To save and exit.)

There is more information about hexedit in the man page; for example, <Ctrl>-C exits without saving.

Hope this helps,
Fred
