I want sda1 /boot to be my boot, why is it default selecting sda3 /
, in "Boot Loader Operating system list" ??
Use fdisk to partition your disk how you want it (i.e. boot into
rescue mode first), then install FC11, it will not be able to swap
things around :)
There should be a be an option in Anaconda that says something like
"Let fedora organize the disk layout" or "Let user organize the disk
layout" (God forbid!)
I cannot understand why you even have the option to create custom
disk layout if it's simply going to try an out smart you when you're
done.

Below is my /Grub/menulist file, Now that I have finnished installing.
My partition layout;
sda1 ext3 /boot
sda2 ext4 /home
sda3 ext4 /
sda4 Extended
sda 5 Swap
How can I edit to boot off of sda1 /boot , instead of sda3 / .

Should do the trick.
If however you still want to use UUID get a list of UUIDs /dev/disk/by-uuid
ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid
and change grub.conf accordingly.
