I think this pretty clearly impacts the provided criterion - +1 alpha blocker
Discussed at the 2011-07-22 blocker bug review review meeting. We agreed that this hits the following alpha release criteria and have accepted it as a Fedora 16 alpha blocker bug. The rescue mode of the installer must start successfully and be able to detect and mount an existing default installation
Tested and confirmed fix in anaconda-16.14-1. We can move this to VERIFIED once that package lands in the branched compose.

James: can you confirm the fix in TC1 and close this? Thanks.
Confirmed I was able to start rescue mode in TC1. Closing. Re-open if a problem remains, James. thanks!
