I downloaded and installed it through firefox just now. I was surprised 
that clicking on the file would launch system-config-packages and have 
automated download followed by an installation. The installation process 
was rather slow, but a welcome addition. I hope it improves for speed 
and functionality for FC4.

Thanks! Since this was a clean install, I missed the introduction of 
kernel-2.6.9-1.698_FC3 in testing. The 715 version, which crashes this 
computer on shutdown, was already in the testing repository. 698 was 
obscured by the newer kernel version being there also.

I'll see if this works without putting the computer into a panic state.
