See Jesse Keating's email from earlier today (maybe yesterday if you're in a 
different time zone).

"""
Of important note, these images do have a bug in them,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=468360 where some realtek
network cards will not initialize properly.  This bug has been fixed in
today's rawhide, which was too late for the snapshot.  If you use the
snapshot and fail to have networking, you'll need to update the kernel.
