I am having trouble installing Fedora 22 Alpha on my PC and laptop. I 
used the method enbodied in this email to get an iso. It will go to the 
screen that says you so many seconds and the installation will begin, 
screen go blank and then nothing.
[root at Jehovah ~]# cd /home/lawrence68/Downloads
[root at Jehovah Downloads]# ls
~  Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-22_Alpha-3.iso
[root at Jehovah Downloads]# livecd-iso-to-disk --format --reset-mbr --efi 
Fedora-22-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso /dev/sdg1
