A little slow off the mark, but I have finally got FC6 installed.
And I have to say, I am impressed. Using the Open Source drivers my ATI card (9600) renders compiz effects successfully, livna is already there and getting media running was simple. The New Xen stuff is great, and the whole thing is a whole bunch faster.
However, I didn’t hit one hiccup. I was going to install some stuff from extras during install, but I couldn’t tell the install to use a proxy. I knew it would fail, but I tried anyway. The installer eventually timed out and then attempted to eject the DVD for an unexplained reason. It could not, but it couldn’t move forward either. I deemed the install a failure and started again without using extras.
All my new installs will be FC6 based from now, and I guess that will make my documentation fc6 centric. Although I am still supporting a handful of fc3 machines, and almost all of the stuff I do is generic enough to be used across distributions as wll as across versions.
