Yippee :-) Thanks for your work. I will test it on my tiger box and make
a report. Downloading a huge image to PRC is really a time-consuming
process ...

I am a newbie here. And I really want to join the development so as to
develop my own skills and to do things helpful. I have just spent almost
a whole week trying to build the f8t3 as well and not successful
yet :-( Uh, I didn't mean to do the repeating thing which already in
process, but just to get myself familiar with the build skills and see
if I can help.

Well, here comes a question: Is there a way to get and share binary rpms
we nightly build? maybe cvs or koji or something like?

Thanks for the kind help to get me become a fedora ia64 developer :-)
And sorry for my poor english ...

Zhan, Yi
