First f17 install -- on an ee701

[Robert Moskowitz]

I have 1Gb of memory upgrade, so I have enough memory.  My SSD is only 
4Gb, but I have a 16GB SD card.

So the SSD is setup for /boot with 300Mb, swap with 1.6Gb and the rest 
is /var.  The SD is /

The challenge with the install is the small screen size.  I complained 
about this and submitted a bug on it with f14 (which was the only 
install I have made on this ee701).  Apparently the developers did not 
feel it necessary to do anything about adjusting the dialog sizes to the 
actual screen size.  For the most part I was able to guess what keys to 
hit for the buttons cut off below the bottom of the screen.  I could not 
see how to setup a LVM on the SD, so it is just and ext4 partition.  
Also I could not go into customizing the packages for the install and 
although I did provide my local repos so I grabbed all the updates right 
off, I had to just go with the standard graphic desktop package install....

Next I will have to do the gnome 3 customizations.  Though I MIGHT just 
leave it for the defaults for a while, rather than all the customzations 
I did for this f16 notebook a year ago.  I actually would like to wait 
for f18 for upgrading my main notebook; I kind of like skipping releases...

Anyway.  so far so good.
