I have downloaded Fedora 12 Beta using http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/torrents//Fedora-12-Beta-x86_64-DVD.torrent Now the installation process is ok. Anakonda is run in graphical mode on first videocard. Picture automaticaly is displayed over DVI port (the old version with single videocard wanted to use S-Video while a monitor was connected over DVI). Hardware: ASUS M4A79 Deluxe + 2 x Radeon x550.
