Actually, I was looking for a way to *not* use grub2 during F16 install 
as it is failing with an unknown error and you can't boot an F16 
installation without jumping thru a bunch a hoops with a recovery cd.

Would you do package customization during the package selection phase of 
installation?

TIA
