[Planetlab-devel] fedora 8 bootcd

[Thierry Parmentelat]

Hi Stephen and all

I do not think this is due to a recent change: the fact that f7 works  
and f8 does not ha been a constant in my own builds for more than a  
month now.
I do not think f8 has ever worked, at least I haven't found anyone to  
report success
and f7 still worked in my 01.15 build this morning.

Can you please confirm this fact ?
