Easy way for users of Fedora and Ovirt to download Ovirt Node Image. Will not require an ISO image to be built and distributed in a RPM.

Ovirt Node Spin

Summary

oVirt Node is a small scaled down version of Fedora used solely to hosts virtual machine guests.

Owner(s)

Moving to F16 target, the spin did not make it into Fedora 12 due to the current level of blacklisting.( Updated kickstart will remove blacklisting)
