The repoclosure test [1] is failing for me on both i386 and x86_64. In addition, the default mirrorlist URL used during a boot.iso install seems bad (see bug#566991). Additionally, I'm seeing a lot of SELinux related messages on the console during install (filed bug#566995). I've updated the wiki matrix accordingly.
There are two other issues I've not managed to pinpoint yet.
1. The mouse/keyboard don't seem to function during any virt installs 2. Unable to login as root after install -- nirik indicated this may also be SELinux related
Thanks, James

Maybe https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566948
- Unable to login as root after install -- nirik indicated this may also be SELinux related
Sounds similar to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=566979

I am getting this symptom on a regular install to a dell d620 laptop. i386 intel graphics.

I encountered the same problems and was just about to file them when I saw these two bugs. So I updated them in bugzilla as well as the result page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_13_Alpha_RC1_Install
I added the testers in the matrix. You can also edit this result matrix no matter login or not.
Thanks, Hurry
Greetings testers,

Does this one hopefully have the fix for the mouse/keyboard problem we had in earlier versions?

Doesn't seem so, still broken for me.

Doesn't work for me neither. I use vnc to access the graphical anaconda.
Tried installing from the x86_64 DVD image on a HP BL460c G1 blade system. The ISO file is mounted as a virtual DVD through the HP management software.
System has 2x36GB SAS drives set up in RAID 1. I tried both ordinary install and 'with basic video driver'. Both start off in text mode, asking me about language, keyboard and location of install image. I am booting from the DVD iso image, so it shouldn't have to ask me where to find the image? When I press F2 to select a non-listed device the installer crashes with a SIGSEGV.

That's unexpected, if you boot the DVD with no additional boot arguments, the only text-mode prompt you should get is whether you want to validate your media. Do you see any messages on tty3 or tty4 that might indicate why it's prompting you for an installation source?

Can you file a bug with a screenshot of the SIGSEGV output please? Sounds like this may impact the iSCSI test case [1] (in text-mode)
Thanks, James

I do not get prompted to validate the media. I dump directly to the 'Choose a language' screen in text mode.
tty3 only says: 11:36:36,699 ERROR : got to setupCdrom without a CD device
tty4 among other things says: NOTICE kernel:scsi 0:0:0:0: CD-ROM HP Virtual DVD-ROM PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS ... WARN kernel:sr0 scsi3-mmc drive: 0x/0x caddy INFO kernel:Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20 DEBUG kernel:sr 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 NOTICE kernel:sr 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 5
could it be a timing problem?
there is also a message saying INFO kernel:fb0: radeondrmfb frame buffer device

The crash happens in /sbin/loader. I have created a bug and will soon upload a screenshot. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=567939

Okay, I see now. Assuming you are already in stage#2 [1] of the install process, it may have failed to initialize X and offered text-mode instead. Can you confirm that is the case (if you have a shell on tty2 .. you are in stage#2)?
Once confirmed, I would recommend repeating the test against RC3 when available. A similar issue was resolved for my test systems using xorg-x11-drv-nouveau.
If the problem remains, please log this issue in bugzilla against the your X driver. There is a guide available [2] to help grab all the necessary data for the bug report. If you are able to, I would recommend completing the install in text-mode and debugging the issue from the installed system.

I don't have an anaconda.log from a CD/DVD install handy. Perhaps just validate that you are booting a CD or DVD (and not the netinst.iso or boot.iso).
