Seems a bit too small for updates?
Can you give me a link where it is?
Thanks!

The boot.iso media that Mike Chambers suggested allows a network install
via http or ftp which updates packages with the latest versions
available initially. You are actually only booting the computer,
connecting to the network, selecting either ftp or http installation,
entering mirror information. You still would need to pull in updates as
they arrive post-install. You would be testing the latest fixes (or
breakages) for anaconda.
One drawback is that the boot.iso changes every day and you must make a
new boot.iso from whatever is current at the time. (Stage 2 is off of
the network and stage is off the boot.iso. You should use rewritable
media since the life cycle for the boot.iso is so short.
Since you are seeing so many failures with the FC5T3 test media, using
the ftp/http install from the most current packages might work out
better for you. You can also report any regressions from previous
installers if you find any.
