As far as getting F18 installed, some of this is OBE because I used
fedup and it worked just fine so I now have a live F18 system for testing.
However, I would like the installer to work and of all the parts that I
consider critical, storage configuration is first in line. I believe
that the best way I can duplicate the problem and get some documentation
is to replicate it virtually and get some screenshots. mmmm I wonder if
the remote display still works? I used that in the past. Now, if only
I can remember how to do it.

I am not sure how things are suppose to work but I do not see ANY LVs!!!!
In Manual Partitioning, on the left side, you do not have an +Unknown listing located under -New Fedora 18 Installation? Or there are no LV's listed?
I will go back and double check but I do not remember seeing an LVs.
And, yes, I want to re-use previously allocated LVs for my install.
There are regular old partitions which I can use for /boot but all of the rest of my disk space is in PVs.
What do you get for pvscan and lvscan? Are there inactive LVs?
I will need to check.
IMO, the whole way storage is being handled in F18 needs to be rethought! Guessing how to do something should never happen.
I agree. But I think in your case the trail is leading to a bug not flawed design.
I am sure this is a bug. However, I would like some button or whatever
"earlier" in the process that says "I know what I am doing, let me
manually configure existing partitions and/or LVs or allocate new ones
on mount points.
