Wow!
Many, many thanks. Really.
Everything went as you wrote, but the last step failed - there is no
signature. This is UEFI boot enabled, dual booting F18 and Win8 (it that's

Attached is a cleaned typescript2.txt showing errors (I didn't start it
from the beginning, sorry, but everything went exactly as you wrote).
I'll wait for your reply before I give up and try to reinstall kernel.
Regards
