Please provide the output I asked you for.
sorry it took so long. I had to change my xorg.conf back to nv from
nouveau so that I could boot my machine.

if your problem is simply that X flat out doesn't work with the nouveau
driver at present on your card, that'd certainly explain why
installation doesn't work, because installation uses X just the same way
as a regular running system does, so it'll be trying to use nouveau. if
you use the kernel parameter 'xdriver=vesa' when running the installer,
does that workaround the problem?
Mixed bag results. Turning on the xdriver=vesa let the preupgrade run. I
now have an X-less fc12 system. I don't know what the system is trying
to run. Xorg.0.log has many messages from nouveau (including GPU freeze)
even though the command line said vesa and xorg.conf said nv. I didn't
come up with a combination that worked.
