I have resolved the issue. The machine came with Windows 7 which uses
BIOS (aka Legacy Mode) and not UEFI so I don't even have a UEFI boot
partition. But to boot Fedora Live from USB, I had to switch from
Legacy Mode to UEFI in system setup (F12 at the Dell logo when
booting). Changing this *back* to Legacy Mode after the installation
now loads the grub screen and I can get into the hard disk
installation.
