Description of problem: Need update Installation issues about problems to start fedora on some kind of hardware. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433750
Can you give us some idea of what a release note on this would say? We have a section "Installation Related Issues"; here is where the pre-alpha content is being worked on: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Installer
You must know, that issue available only for previous version of Fedora (7, 6, 5, ...). I really don't know what kind of hardware produce that problem, and can speak only about my notebook. What i have: i try to run Fedora installation and got really slow installing process. I wait for 5 minutes before see first graphics installation screen. Then i try to set right amount of memory for my notebook he have 1024 mb and kernel parameter mem=1000M solve that problem. If you want do same as me, please type at syslinux logo "linux mem=1000M" and you get it! What you need to know: that parameter ("mem") is related to total amount of memory of your hardware, and probably if you play with that value from 128M up to 2048M you still don't solve slow boot for each hardware. But as i think is a good tip in release notes for guys who want to install fedora for problematic hardware. So, try so say in good english ;) about issues: really slow boot process, and describe possible solution for that: play with mem parameter from 128M up to 2047M related to PC total amount of memory

I think including this sort of thing in the appropriate Common Problems documentation is appropriate. I don't believe it needs to be a beat. Anyone else have a comment?
