F13 doesn't let me customize install

I'm trying to upgrade an existing install and the F13 DVD didn't ask me to confirm my partitions nor did it offer to let me customize my install. What's up with that? Hopefully it's not going to wipe my system and do a fresh install! I think someone needs to fix this in the next release so

building a custom live CD/DVD image

Any tips for building a custom Live Image? I need some AS/400 terminals and would prefer to use linux, if I can. IF I can build my own image, I wouldn't need a hard drive to install to. Thanks! -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: htt
