I prepared my fresh installation of F26.
I have a /boot (500M) partition (actually /boot/efi preformated as ext4).
In the installer, I get:
For a UEFI installation, you must include an EFI system Partition on a
GPT-formatted disk, mounted as /boot/efi

This is a UEFI booting computer? Normally, there's a Windows installation already on the system and the EFI partition already exists. Assuming that in this case, there is no Windows involved, you will need to create the EFI partition. I'm not sure how to do it in the installer unless maybe it's one of the filesystem types. The EFI partition needs to be formatted as FAT32 with a specific GUID in the GPT partition table. You don't need a separate /boot partition, the /boot/efi partition will be mounted properly anyway.
