Hello,
I pulled myself together and worked around the LVM problem and the rest of the installation actually worked fine.
Now I'm wondering if there is a way to get the font rendering to look different. I followed all the instructions on http://fedorasolved.org/Members/khaytsus/improve-fonts/, but the fonts look pretty much unchanged:

I would like them to look more like this:

Any recommendations?
Your hinting is too strong. Try "light".
There are people liking this "lego blocks" appearance (which is similar to Windows), but many others (including you, and me) like the smooth one (more similar to OS X).
I think that once your eyes have been trained on one style, you irremediably find the other one ugly.
