I'm sorry about the missed attribute, I thought it was pretty much
implied since it was part of a thread in which several people had
contributed similar advice. Beyond that the responses begin to look
more bloggy to me, I've noticed some messages just giving
acknowledgement, too much for the list I think. If it is important I
will change my thinking. But be assured I read and consider what you
say and thank you for it!
Yes I did not understand the role media writer plays in the
installation, the important thing is that now I can see how to do much
of the job with text in a terminal, the reason I wrote the initial query.
Yes, I want "Standard Partitions" as media writer names it, rather
than a Fedora 33 LVM system which I find adds a layer of complexity I
prefer not to have.
As for chances of NFS contributing errors in this process, it was not
a factor since I still had a copy of the .iso file in Downloads and
used it. However the NFS server provides data I use routinely as long
as this system is running and I have recognized no problems caused by it.
As noted in the thread, there is a custom partition option that lets you
do your own scheme as desired. However, it is not a command line
sequence but somewhat hidden in the installer gui. It doesn't
acknowledge a pre-partitioned scheme very well and can take several
tries to get it to accept what you want the system to look like. Success
can be found eventually.
