In two different instances of installing FC6 (one using i386 arch, the other using x86_64), I tried adding the fedora updates repository to the list of repositories to install packages from thinking I would end up with an updated installation. Anaconda would warn of missing group info, but would not halt with an error. With using the default installation packages and adding the Development set of packages, the installation would go smoothly and without incident, but upon rebooting, the newly installed system would halt complaining of a missing init.
