Thanks! I downloaded the netinst image for f19, I tried to install
but.... an "unknown" error occured and everything aborted.
I could read some things from the log: it seems that some python library
is not able to handle raid....
My previous installation was made with the previous version of anaconda
partionning the disks with raid 1 and lvm.
New version of anaconda seems to be unable to handle this (I tried the
old version comming with f14 and it can read my old partitionning).
I tried to file a bug report from anaconda, but I could not because
people developping anaconda think that there is only one type of
keyboard in the world: QWERTY. I don't know this keyboard by heart and I
gave up.
Progress is going on!
I have been using redhat/fedora since redhat 5 and stopped to upgrade
from f14 because of gnome3.
I tried today to install f19 with xfce but it is such a chore that I
give up and will switch to debian (the debian installer is able to read
my raid-lvm partition).
Bye!
