I started with Fedora-Workstation-netinst-x86_64-23 on a thumb drive. I booted, selected automatic partitioning and MATE, and it started downloading RPMs. When it finished downloading, it rebooted. Apparently, there's a conflict between release and updates on who owns /etc/xdg/menus/mate-preferences-categoris.menu, and anaconda just crashes and reboots (not even a traceback) on an install transaction failure.
Ouch. Is this with updates repository enabled, or not?
I believe I tried it without updates enabled, but I'm not sure now.
I was also fighting with getting anaconda to use a proxy (weird office Cisco firewall issue slowing downloads from the Internet dramatically, but a local proxy outside the firewall works fine).
Try
echo "0" >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack
and see if that cleans up your Cisco issue. It can have a significant effect on ssh, scp and sftp transfers--perhaps yours as well (we use a Cisco Pix).
