I rebooted the installation, did NOT select my local repos, using the closest mirror, and that let me select the Xfce desktop. Might be something with the rsync of the mirrors that I did....
Installing as little as possible and then will attempt to do the rest locally. And I probably have to start learning DNF...

I am attempting a workstation installation on my rebuilt Lenovo x120e notebook.
I want the Xfce desktop. I download the workstation netinstall x86_64 iso and built a DVD.
I downloaded:
mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/22/Workstation/x86_64/os/
to my repos server and also:
mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/updates/22/x86_64/ (less debug and drpms directories)
I booted the install image, set up the partitions as I like (smaller /, larger swap and /home).
I specific my local OS repo and the updates as 'update'. I selected the Xfce desktop (deselecting all additional groups for starters) and get an error:
Error checking software selection.
So how do I do a local install of Xfce?
thank you.
Hi Robert I'm not sure, but I suppose that at the alpha stage the selection of personal desktops is not guaranted.
Alpha stage? I am speaking about F22, not F23...
