All of the offical Live media from the Fedora Project is installable... although there maybe one or two that don't have an "Install to hard drive" icon on the desktop by default.  For example the KDE spin is like that... you have to hunt down the "liveinst" program in the menu or run it directly with a search and/or Alt+F2.

I'll save that as an exercise for the reader... but a hint would be to look at one or more of the kickstarts used to build the official Fedora Live media which can be found in the fedora-kickstarts package.

If I cut it to a DVD, it is installable.  But the feature seems to
be missing if I cut it to a USB
