This one I saw too, quite annoying but easy fix.

In addition the installer forgot about my Norwegian keyboard and reverted 
to the US default after boot. system-config-keyboard fixed that one.

Me too.

Also: My test-machine is on a mixed IPv4/IPv6 network. The default IPv6 
ip6table filter does not work at all, it blocks all traffic. I believe the 
problem is that the kernel lacks conntrack modules for ip6tables. As it is 
the ip6table filter must be disabled for the machine to work well. 
Upgrading to kernel 2.6.17-1.2293_FC6 did not help.
