I am just speculating here, but it might be that the installer
environment is missing some kernel module needed to control the fan
speed or gauge the temperature sensors. This may or may not be
an indication that the problem will persist, so I suggest you continue
the installation and see whether it does.

Depending on your laptop model, chipset and firmware support there are
several utilities available that enable you to control the fan speed and
CPU throttling, both in the Fedora package repositories as well as
elsewhere on the web.
