Ok I finally did it. After trying all version of anaconda from anaconda-12.0-1.fc12 to anaconda-12.7-1.fc12 (against the current f11 libs), they all gave me different sorts of errors. At the end I just patched the anaconda-11.5.0.59-1.fc11 with the following commits and recompiled it. commit 162c92b4838f9769f39b0c3a85f9c6e4a38a5913: x86 and EFI platforms can now have /boot on ext4. commit 11266dabba490baf732b85ba76e2841e6ae17733: Default to /boot on ext4 commit 9e83e8a43f8a609c65c39c6de8cf1c341d3f31ec: Allow /boot on ext4 now that we have a grub that allows it Now I have f11-install-dvd with grub (recompiled grub-0.97-59.fc11) on ext4 by default. It' works just fine.
