I was suspecting this would happen. The problem is that the original F9
netboot image is too big for the firmware and the reduced image at BSC does
not contain the network driver for the QS20.
There a various ways to work around these issues, depending on your
equipment and experience, but they are all a bit messy. Maybe one of the
easier methods would be to install F7 (or maybe F8 works too, not sure) and
then do a step by step upgrade to F9 via "yum update"
