I took some pictures of the "Details" message,

I'm not getting anything at that URL, and I probably won't have a way
around whatever it is, either.

Oops.

Alright, I looked at the pics you posted and it appears that you have reproduced this anaconda crash during the bootloader installation:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=796472

I was looking at the included exception report and it seems this person was installing F16 on the second of two drives with the bootloader going on the first.

Is that what you were doing as well?

That is not what I recall, but I might be wrong.
Is there a way to tell which disk was used
for booting that does not involve rebooting?
I've been poking around /proc , but haven't found anything.

As mentioned earlier, when attempting upgrade,
the only allowed source was F14, i.e. the one I wanted to keep.
For that reason, I selected fresh custom install.
When listing available partitions, anaconda listed the sda partitions as
the target partitions and the sdb partitions as the data partitions.
I put everything except a swap file on sdb.
When it asked where to put the bootloader,
I think it specified sda as the default.
My recollection was that sdb was the boot disk, so that bothered me.
Given the troubles I'd had previously after rejecting a bootloader default,
I decided to accept this one.
All seemed to be going well until the crash.
