Well I'm not ready to convert my server to F8 yet.  It's running an Oracle DB and I only have 
one server so I'm hesitant till I have a place to try it.  I tried NFS mounting the drives
and running the install from my F8 laptop.  But large transfers seem to lockup the NFS drives
and Revisor is a 50/50 if it's going to do it.

Do you (or anyone) know where exactly in anaconda this is?  Does it use the F8 anaconda to build
an F8 install or the F7 one?   I noticed in F8 the package util-linux has been renamed to util-linux-ng in F8. 
(or at least it's the only package that seems to match.)
