You can't ... you need to use another installation method than the
live media to use any other fs than ext4.

The live media installation basically copies the the ext4 image to
disk and re-sizes it.

Using the install DVD or a netinstall image you can use any supported
fs (including brtfs when passing the magic "icantbelieveitsnotbtr").
