For the "unable to mount" error, what do you see on tty5?

For the other, what is the traceback you are getting?

Since went to F9 so can't get that info, sorry.

Can't get the traceback now, but it looked like was with yum and setting
up repo or something once it was selected and changed to nfs.

Noticed that if you do interactive install nfs fails, but if you do
method=nfs:server:/path on command line it works.

Interactive install how?

If you can write down the exact steps you are taking, grab the traceback
or whatever error message you are getting, and file a bug, I might
actually be able to fix things like this. Until then, I can't do
anything unless we see it in our own testing.

Then unless Andy or I can reproduce this, there's really nothing I can
do to fix it. I'll take a look tomorrow and see what happens.

Bug 458416
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458416

In my case I am doing a PXE boot and then trying to do an NFS directory
install when it fails.
