I am testing with Windows 8 Pro Client Hyper-V hosting. I've
downloaded the Live Desktop, created a virtual machine and completed
an install. Everything *looks* good, but there was a kernel oops
shortly after I logged in. ABRT caught it and there's a bug filed at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=893891

I'm going to work through the complete install process for
https://github.com/znmeb/Computational-Journalism-Publishers-Workbench
to see if anything else shakes out. I don't expect anything; I've been
running this on Fedora 18 since a couple of weeks before beta and this
is the first actual bug in Fedora I've encountered.

How the Hell can the lion sleep with all those people singing "A weem
oh way!" at the top of their lungs?
