f2t3 x86_64 installation report: thumbs up

[Pau Aliagas]

I have installed from a DVD, a new x86_64 Fedora Core 2 Test 3.
It's happily up and running, but I've found a few issues:

Installation
-------------
* when creating LVM volumes, the mini-wm stopped working when clicking and 
  double-clicking on the partitions. I had to restart because it dodn't 
  recover. The ttys were ok.

* 2nd installation worked flawlessly

Post-installation
-----------------
* system-config-display wites XF86Config instead of xorg.conf and shows 
  the parametres setup in that file. X uses xorg.conf as expected.
* yum: it's configured to use the main site instead of mirrors. I have 
  setup the mirrors manually, but no new user will understand why it 
  doesn't update and why it doesn't connect.

Summary
-------
Very good, in general, but we should address these two issues if we don't 
want to upset new users.

I just wanted to bugzilla that, but it is already put in:

Similar symptoms as in the following from last year?

Yes, I cannot assure that it's 100% the same, but it looks like it. If I 
reinstall again I'll try to reproduce it.
