That's exactly what "mountpoint" means to me. That's what I specified, and  
fedup accepted that without any issues. If that's wrong, fedup should've  
thrown this back in my face, or, upon reboot, there should be some kind of  
an informative error message. This should not result in an unexpected  
reboot, with no clue as to its root cause. I'll bugzilla this.

Interestingly enough, the installer now has an option to activate a wireless  
connection and, presumably, also pull in any updates; however with fedup,  
the existing wireless apparently did not get activated, so all it did was  
update the packages in the ISO image, and I had to manually load the updates  
after F18's initial load.
