I don't think we need to do any mucking with the artwork, or any
other non-functional changes.  It's my understanding (as an individual
user, not speaking for SGI here) that Fedora can be much more freely
distributed than Red Hat Linux could be - i.e. no more "Pink Tie
Linux" and probably no need to purge references to "Red Hat" or 
copyrighted images.

You guys should also be talking with jkatz@ red hat, he's their
installer guy and seems very interested in making xfs work.  Maybe
not the cd4 version, but at least grub fixes etc.
