I wonder, what exactly were you trying to achieve?
Beyond a possible (?) bug report when dealing with your swap (and I
doubt it), your post is pure rent.

Let me help you:
1. Fedora uses grub1.
2. Fedora doesn't support /boot on LVM.
3. Fedora requires you to remember the URL of your network installation
image.
4. All of the above is well documented.

Now, if 1-4 prevents you from using Fedora you could be civil (!!!) or
even, God forbids, constructive, and post an RFE in
http://bugzilla.redhat.com stating the problem and a possible solution,
hoping that your use-case will be enough to justify the effort.
On the other hand, you can rant @Fedora-users and feel good about
yourself.
Your choice.
