I missed that part. That will be difficult. It will overwrite the
UEFI boot entry of the other Fedora.

The installer does not show what it is doing with the drive. Only
choice is "begin installation". Had to modify the drive to create
some free space. The install then proceeded. Created a /boot/efi
partition and /boot partition with the rest of the free space as a
lvm2 pv. The system is in a a 16G logical volume. The install of
grub2 picked up Windows 10 and the Fedora 35 in grub2.cfg from the
other drives. Filesystem is XFS.
I thought UEFI was supposed to be an improvement on boot choices, but
it seems like the old GRUB that you could easily hand control its
configuration was easier to deal with (for multiboot multi-OS PCs).
It's a huge improvement for booting in normal cases.
I get the impression UEFI is only good for one OS installation on the
system, perhaps giving you a boot in safe mode or from a re-install
partition. But all from one OS that had been developed with those
choices in mind.
No, the problem is that Fedora installs a boot entry labelled "Fedora"
and I think it will either leave or overwrite an existing entry. And if
it did add another one, it would be confusing as to which one was which
since they have the same label.
You could manually add a new entry with a different label, it's pretty easy.
