4. (879187) NFS in RC1 regressed vs. TC9: does not override inst.stage2 when passed as inst.repo, interactive NFS is impossible (tflink, 20:22:33)
   1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=879187 (tflink, 20:22:36)
   2. Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 20:22:39)
   3. AGREED: 879187 - RejectedBlocker, AcceptedNTH - While this does come close to blocker status due to the intereference with nfs sources during installation, there are acceptable workarounds and it was decided that this isn't severe enough overall to justify blocker status for F18 beta. (tflink, 20:37:19)
   
   
5. (876218) kernel boot + nfsiso repo = hang on reboot (tflink, 20:37:29)

   2. Proposed Blocker, anaconda, ASSIGNED (tflink, 20:37:29)
   3. AGREED: 876218 - RejectedBlocker - This doesn't hit any F18 beta release criteria 100% and was deemed not a blocker for F17 final. Therefore, it was decided that this is not severe enough to justify blocker status for F18 beta. (tflink, 20:40:51)
   
   
6. (873459) Upgraded system does not reboot if a kernel upgrade is part of the upgrade (tflink, 20:41:14)
