Here is the final grub stanza:

As far as "installing without media", I believe your repo= is incorrect.
LABEL= takes a volume label, not a mountpoint. The blkid command will
tell you if there is one and what it is. You can set it with GPARTED.
So, if blkid says the label of the /home1 partition is "F16DVD", use
/home1 is the label.
It's usual mountpoint is /homes .
I'll use whichever I can get to work.
So far, neither.
I get that it's been frustrating for you, but this is a bleeding-edge
distribution which will have some issues now and then. Also consider
that you are trying to use a non-standard means of installation.
In any case, there still seems to be a problem with accessing the repo
files. I'm not sure what would cause the selinux message you saw.
I hope this /home1 is just a standard partition, without encryption or
LVM. Is that right? Whenever I do this, I just stick the iso in the
root of a FAT32 partition.
Correct. ext3.
The F16 installer installs packages, then dies.
The F17 installer just dies.
