I just got an idea. I can modify the get-fed script to get FC-7 rather than fc-8 in multiple CD images format and then would-be installers could do the instructions in the howto and install FC-7 and then when all is working on FC-7 do the yum upgrade instructions to upgrade everything to FC-8 on their existing installation and still have everything talking. If anyone would be interested I can do it with not much difficulty. Before you run the script though, you'll need 6 blank CD's to hand since this script downloads an image and on successful download burns it to disk.
