Oh, uh, just to make sure, you *did* change it to p11p1, right? I'm
guessing 'yes', but trying to cover every option. So you did:

repo=http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/fedora/development/17/i386/os
ip=192.168.1.2::192.168.1.1:255.255.255.0::p11p1:none
nameserver=192.168.1.1 rd.luks=0 rd.md=0 rd.dm=0 splash=verbose noipv6
selinux=0 xdriver=radeon resolution=1152x864 vga=794 nodmraid nofirewire
