I just did a sucessful install to an external USB HD using a USB of  
Fedora-17-Beta-x86_64-DVD.iso
-It only used the Install Repo on the DVD(USB)

./tools_livecd-iso-to-disk.sh --format --reset-mbr
Fedora-17-Beta-x86_64-DVD.iso /dev/sdb1

1-)needed an 8GB USB formatted GPT format with /dev/sdb1 formatted fat in disk-utility
2-)only 4GB was formatted label:LIVE and 4GB was left unformatted
3-)a second partition was created by anaconda labeled LIVE-REPO (with Fedora 17 Beta-x86-64-DVD.iso inside)
