f21(rawhide)-live-workstation-20140522 64bit installed to HD with 
21.37-1 "liveinst"from DVD:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_21_Rawhide_2014_05_Install#Live_image

workstation i686 and 86_64 .iso files work with liveusb-creator 
installed with "yum install liveusb-creator"
Both USB's Boot

see: 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_21_Rawhide_2014_05_Install#USB_stick

f21 Workstation -live-(rawhide) looks fixed with 21.37-1

Now we can test the lives as they boot and install.
Thanks to all who worked  this out.
