Before anyone wastes time/bandwidth: this build is bad, it's hit by a
couple of bugs which make it a complete failure for testing. We'll do a
new TC build soon, and re-announce the testing. So just hang tight for
now! Sorry.

Please take in to account 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=565393 before announcing 
TC2. Anaconda can't deal with my partition table and aborts immediately.

Thanks for the test feedback!  Noted in the bug also, but added here for
others to see.

Adding to F13Final blocker bug as this meets the [following] Final
blocker criteria [1] points:

* The installer must be able to create and install to any workable
        partition layout using any file system offered in a default
        installer configuration, LVM, software, hardware or BIOS RAID,
        or combination of the above
      * The installer must be able to install alongside into free space
        alongside an existing clean single-partition Windows
        installation and either install a bootloader which can boot into
        the Windows installation, or leave the Windows bootloader
        untouched and working
