Grub

(after installation)
-type C to enter grub mode..
(if it has a hardware device to control your hard disk, make sure you choose the one that's for Fedora)
-in Grub, type root=(hd1,0), you can use" root=(hd " then TAB to list all your options
-kernel=/vm (press TAB)
-initrd=/ini (press TAB)
now, type "boot" to start the partition you selection

k3b

-Now you should hae fedora installed and it should have user list in the login list (in this case is "claw")
-login as root (or u can login as regular user then "su -", if u prefer)
-connect your fedora to internet
-with root privilege to run "yum -y install k3b isomaster"
-it will install "k3b" and "isomaster" automatically


Customizing ISO Image with k3b

-run k3b
-insert your Fedora installation DVD
-in the pull down menu, choose, "copy DVD"
-make sure you choose the optioin "create image"
-save the image in your target location

ISO Master

-run isomaster
-add the iso image that you created with k3b
-after adding the iso, add /root/anaconda-ks.cfg to your image's root directory and rename it to "ks.cfg"

- open "ks.cfg" find the line...
"bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda,sdb --apppend="rhgb quiet""

"bootloader --location=sdb --driveorder=sda,sdb --apppend="rhgb quiet""

^----- believe it or not, Nestor did it, ;-p -----^
-save and add to the image ISO, make sure the name is "ks.cfg" on ISO Image. -if u're not running with root, use root to copy it to avaliable directory and make sure it's readable for your current user
-in your image list, open /isolinux/isolinux.cfg
-find "label linux" and edit the line "append initrd=initrd.img" to "append initrd=initrd.img ks=cdrom"
