I'm trying to install/upgrade a system currently running F10 to F11

The anaconda graphical install fails, and it always falls back to
the text mode install.  I have to use the graphical mode, because
I need partitioning/LVM/LUKS options that the text mode
does not support.

Does anybody have any idea what may have changed in F11, and how
I can get the graphical installer to run like it did in previous releases?

You might try "nomodeset" on the boot command line and see if the X server starts ok.

If that fails, and you have another linux box to use, you can add "vnc" to the command line and do a graphical install remotely.

Hope This Helps
