You haven't filed a bug report, you haven't presented any logs to anyone to find out if what you're experiencing is in fact intended behavior. You haven't even stated the nature of the installation failure. >> Talking about it on this list will not result in any action. > > Won't it? Why not?

Because this is the user to user forum. To cause a design change in the installer means posting to the Red Hat anaconda-devel@ list. To cause a design change specific to Fedora means posting to the Fedora devel@ list. Bugs, requests for enhancement, and even perceived clearly articulated design flaws should have bug reports filed. Pretty much always when an installer bug is filed, the installer logs should be attached (at least program.log and storage.log).

You are supposed to state what did happen, including any error messages received, and how this differs from your expectation of what should have happened. The installer always keeps logs in /tmp - so go try a Fedora baremetal install and when it "won't install" and you're stuck, post the /tmp/anaconda.log, /tmp/program.log, and /tmp/storage.log. You can even fpaste them directly from the shell, just fpaste <filename> and then note the URL and post it.
