[snip for brevity]

19 Alpha RC4 _x86_64 net install with Gnome Desktop installs no problem
on Fedora 17 KVM on a dual-core 2GHz with 2GB RAM.

Took a while & the 'Green Screen of Nearly Death' on boot & shutdown was
particularly tedious but I put that down mostly to the paucity of the
RAM. Desktop is pretty slow but better than your average Live CD.

Cheers,
