Versions tested:
 * rawhide 20081001
 * anaconda-11.4.1.42-1

A screenshot of tty3 can be seen at - http://jlaska.fedorapeople.org/rawhide.png

Steps to reproduce:
 1. PXE boot off the network
 2. Select lang=en, keymap=us
 3. Select a valid NIC
 4. Select DHCP
 5. Enter a URL of http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/x86_64/os

Additional notes:

 * have tested using a URL with a hostname, and an IP (66.187.224.20) ... same result

Comment 3 Will Woods 2008-10-02 17:52:53 UTC
Running a (non-PXE) install on x86_64 fails the same way.
Note that the last message from the kernel (tty4) is the same as yours:
  ISOFS: Unable to identify CD-ROM format.

The last message on tty5 is:
  Running... /bin/mount -n -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 /tmp/install.img /mnt/runtime

which is odd, since install.img isn't iso9660 - it's squashfs. There's no mention of squashfs anywhere.

We try to mount the install.img as a variety of filesystem types, always have.  It looks to me like we are getting hung up in the loop of reading output from mount and are never getting around to trying the next filesystem type.  See mountLoopback and doMultiMount in loader.
