Fedora 14 text install
Hi gurus, I am trying to install F14 by console so far I did.
1. splash screen of CD with menu appears - I press [tab] at Boot options
2 Appears line
vmlinuz0 initrd=initrd0.img root=live:CDLABEL=Fedora-14-i686-Live-Desktop ro otfstype=auto ro liveimg quiet rhgb rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM
2. edited the line to: "vmlinuz0 initrd=initrd0.img text"
3. Pressed enter and started to boot
4. A few seconds late a error message appears saying: "empty root argument"
5. also tryied various modification of "root=" option and of course GOOGLE but only the error message changed: "dont know how to handle root=@cdrom, root=@initrd0.img etc"
Please what is correct syntax for root option ? and what is it purpose ? Thanks a lot

Seems that best solution is not to use live CD of F14
