These two showstopper bugs need to be fixed:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=118941
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=116511

I tried doing fresh installs off today's x86-64 devel tree and they're still
there.  My notebook's HD has a NTFS partition that triggers the first bug
and my desktop has a HD dedicated to Linux (no NTFS) that hits the 
second bug.  Installing with selinux disabled had no effect on the second
bug.  I didn't try acpi=off but it had no effect the last time I tried it. 
I assume, but did not try, that a FC1 install can be upgraded to devel. 
Both installs were via NFS (local mirror). 

Anyone smarter than me who can spare the time and is looking for bugs
to target should take a stab at these.
