My actual steps were this: - Burn and install Fedora Workstation. Found it totally useless for me. - Burn and install Fedora-Server. Same thing, not even a GUI. - Burn and install Mate-Compiz. Not bad, at least close what I used to get with a full install. - The Fedora-Server-inst ISO is mentioned (just like you have) so I find, burn, and begin to install it. I am very happy, I can choose Mate, and it looks like I am finally going to get a good install. I then get stopped by Bug 1130550, which looks like something to do with httrack which I think is in the Security package (not sure of my facts here). I investigate, and attempt to install again this time without as many Add-ons. The install goes a whole lot farther, but when I come back to check on it the laptop is dead, except for the Caps Lock light which is blinking about twice a second (never seen that before). I might assume that the Screensaver came on causing this issue, but why that is not disabled during an install just baffles me (along with a lot of these other decisions). I had wiped out my Mate-Compiz install to try "inst" but since it seemed to work I went back to it. Have a lot of it configured (I can even scan, whooo hoooo!), but keep running into missing packages and features. I guess I took these things for granted with a full install.
