Trying to install from the nightly compose desktop spin: 1) direct booting fails as gdm goes into a paroxysm of fail/restart and just flashes the screen. 2) booting into mode 3 and doing a startx brings up a useable desktop 3) /usr/bin/liveinst fails with an error report of missing /usr/bin/hal-lock
giving up for the night.

- /usr/bin/liveinst fails with an error report of
missing /usr/bin/hal-lock
Oooh, bad anaconda, depending on hal. No cookie for you. Fileabug!

What would be even more useful would be suggesting what we should be doing to replace the usage of /usr/bin/hal-lock.
The replacement for hal-lock is udisks --inhibit. See udisks(1).

Run 'yum install /usr/bin/hal-lock'. You will be prompted to install the corresponding package, and liveinst then allows to install the system successfully. ~C
That does indeed let the system install successfully.
1) Firstboot does not get run properly after reeboot 2) gdm still goes into paralasis of fail/restart so one can't log in graphically 3) login on a text console works and using mode3 and startx brings up a useable desktop
4) NFS is not part of the default system (personal nitpick) 5) vim is not on the default system (personal preference)

Additionally, plymouthd throws an error durring bootup: cannot log bootup, address already in use.
