There is still https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=660464 randomly affecting many 32bit testruns on KVM (and probably still VirtualBox). However, the very same 2.6.37-kernel works on my two Laptops (except for a panic on suspend-to-RAM). VMs are an important platform for testers/users, so this should not be taken lightly.
For the record, I unloaded Build 1016 of the i586 NET install CD and installed it on a VirtualBox VM. The only problem I had was that it did not get an IP via DHCP when the network was configured the NAT option. After I switched to BRIDGE mode, all was OK.
I was surprised to see that the kernel is 2.6.37-rc5, not the 2.6.37 that I expected.

The explanation is very simple. All NET install CDs use the 11.4 repo by default, which redirects to MS5 atm, which did not yet have this bug. You explicitly have to change the source in isolinux bootloader via F4 to /factory/repo/oss I know two other people who did the same yesterday, when they wanted to install Factory. This indicates that this workflow should be better documented or otherwise be aided. You could also just try booting up any i586 Build10xx.iso 10 times - it does contain the new kernel+udev and see if it works every time.
