With FC17 the installation wizard doesn’t appear, just some error messages from dracut. I think this trick finished working when LVM support was added to Fedora, perhaps at some point after FC9. Still unsolved as of today! There is some workaround among comments of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=650672 . I was able to install FC17 onto FC12 by installing grub2 first, then playing with some of its commands during boot (search for “rd.break=pre-udev” there).
Still thanks to you, Kulbir! This post led me to the right path.
