Also I believe that starting with F13 during an install you could
specify an update repo so update got installed at install rather than
having to spend another hour or so after first boot doing a 'yum update
all'  Of course, installing updates during install would also require a
network connection too.  It might make the install take a bit longer if
the updates came off of an internet repo opposed to a local one, but
would give you a machine that's up2date at first boot.
