I recently installed Korora, which is closely derived from Fedora, I'm told.
As is my usual preference, I used GParted to make and format partitions 
before I installed
Korora in a multi-boot configuration with Windows 7 and PCLOS-KDE.
It was quite difficult and non obvious how to install Korora on the / 
and /home
partitions I made for it, but it can be done. From other posts here, I 
believe the
Fedora and Korora installers are the same, and, to be honest, they suck!
I don't usually post such language, but in this case it's deserved!
