Hi I've just installed Fedora 8 on an i386 workstation trying out a usb bootmedia and nfs mount of the dvd. Everything seemed fine, but on configuring the workstation to use a remote mount for the user home directories and ypbind for nis logins, groups, etc. I got errors during login saying that the home directory didn't exist. This was for console logins as well as KDE/Gnome. After a console login, you were put to / as the default directory, but issuing a cd commend put you into the correct user home directory with full access - so the mount was working okay. It also works on to several other workstations, so I don't think there is a problem with the server side nfs. Eventually, I gave up and reinstalled using the DVD directly and everything worked okay.
