Yes, used entire disk, DVD install.  Had F15 installed before.  After
installation, all defaults, minimal install (Tried Gnome the first few
times, then minimal to speed things up), the bios finds no boot disk.  Happy
to do it again and provide any and all log files.

Live CD shows typical partition layout, it installed, just can't boot.  I
even tried to wipe the GPT without luck.
