Fedora 16 Install

Well this didn't go so smoothly. I first tried to install from live usb - perhaps this was a mistake.
After partitioning, when beginning the install, it stopped with a filesystem error.
Frustrated also with LVM, I had tried the install without LVM.
I tried many partition layouts, including with LVM, but in the end was unable to resolve it.

Desperate, I did a fresh install of Fedora 15 (from DVD install media), using a custom layout (without LVM), which worked fine. From there yum upgrade from Fedora 15 to 16 went smoothly.
