How about http://clumens.fedorapeople.org/exn.ogg instead?

Ignore the part at the end where it directs you to
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/xmlrpc.cgi/446999.  That's from a slightly
older version of my updates image that I for some reason didn't do the
screen capture against.

This is my favorite approach as well.  I doubt anyone's really going to
want to use it any time soon, but it's entirely possible.  Easy to split
things out later.

The test bug (446999) doesn't have it in the status whiteboard since
that was my first iteration of the patch late one afternoon, but we'll
be putting "anaconda_trace_hash:" at the beginning.

I'll work on the final stuff related to filer.py (like a little better
organization) and get this all committed.
