After some research, figured out how to get my harddrive partition
layout to GPT and then making sure to have a /boot/efi during
partitiong/install let me continue and install F16.

I do see that grub1 is used instead of 2?

Anyway, cept for an error I saw while ago after first reboot, something
to do with dracut so will have to watch for that.
