It should be noted that that FAQ is not an official one, and has some  
issues.

For example, it does not mention the cdrecord -dao -pad solution for  
mediacheck issue. If possible, it is better to burn that way and avoid  
needing to issue a command to the installer telling it to turn dma off  
on the CD drive.

The yum.conf instructions use fc2 fedora extras, really should use pre- 
extras now that pre-extras is available.

the yum.conf is everything in one file, while that works - it is  
probably best to take advantage of the /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory

Perhaps an official Fedora maintained FAQ should be linked to the  
mailing list footer?
