Thank you very much Adam for your input.  Here's what comes out:

[liveuser@localhost ~]$ liveinst 

^C
[liveuser@localhost ~]$ Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda-cleanup", line 88, in <module>

KeyboardInterrupt
^C


The process just sits there, I used CTRL+C to kill it, upon doing this I get above message.  I want to install F16 on this machine, because no Fedora since F13 has run on it :(

Regards,

Antonio
