Fedora 17 custom kernels
Does Fedora 17 boot with custom kernels built on F17? Or is it only having issues with custom kernels built on other Linux systems?

You should probably email the Fedora kernel list with this question. F17 will, in general, boot with custom kernels with the usual degree of needing to have a proper config. Starting with the F17 config file found in /boot is usually a good idea.

Thanks Josh. I only ask because I'm gonna install a fresh system for my kernel dabbling, but didn't want to install F17 if there were known issues.
Thanks

F17 boots a custom kernel just fine, if properly configured. I've never used any Fedora kernel longer than the install process and have never encountered any serious problems.
