Just a little background here :)

We had running oVirt Node's on older Fedora's (F14, etc).  The problem
is that with the switch to things like grub2 and systemd in Fedora 16,
this introduced a _lot_ of disruption to the way that the Node works and
so we're slowly digging ourselves out of a hole created by systemd/grub2 :)

As Mike said, we should have this resolved shortly and hopefully in time
for F16 GA

The other blocker here is making sure that vdsm (which is now included
in the new oVirt Node builds) works correctly.  There may be some last
minute issues/debugging that needs to happen there.  danken may have
more info on this aspect.

Cheers,

Perry
