Is this true?
It seems extraordinary to me that no-one has said it is false.

There are only a couple of days before F-10 comes out,
and it will surely be a major upset if it does not run on SCSI systems.

I would have thought there would still be a significant number
of people running SCSI machines.

I have had problems running the system created by preupgrade
on a SCSI machine - the system does not seem able to find
some files on the SCSI disk, although it must have seen the disk
in order to boot.
