F17-Beta: some flaws

[Joachim Backes]

Hi,

I downloaded the x86_64 F17-Beta iso and installed it inside VirtualBox.
I did a minimal install. Install was done flawlessly, and I could boot.

1.

Then I booted this fresh installed F17 with a rescue start until the
root partition was mounted to /mnt/sysimage. Nothing more. Then a simple
reboot of the F17 box performed a partition relabel which took some
time. Why that?

2.

I run system-config-keyboard within the rescue shell and changed the
keyboard to german-no-deadkeys. No error message, but still the keyboard
remains US (y/z problem and some other needed keys).

3. I tried to run gdisk or cgdisk inside the rescue. But this is not
offered by the rescue system. My opinion: If I install an OS with GPT
and I perform a rescue, the gdisk and/or cgdisk should be available.

4.

Trying "yum install */gdisk" produces an error:

File "/usr/bin/yum", line 28, in <module>
import yummain

Import error: No module named yummain

Kind regards
