If a filesystem isn't selected, installation will automatically default to using LVM (as in the graphical install). That is completely non-obvious to users though, so you're right, and LVM should be selected from the outset to be consistent with graphical behavior. Patch posted to anaconda-patches list. Patch pushed, commit 2a35b969b2312d8a994def92cc8a91369416de87 anaconda-19.27-1.fc19, pykickstart-1.99.31-1.fc19, python-blivet-0.14-1.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-blivet-0.14-1.fc19,pykickstart-1.99.31-1.fc19,anaconda-19.27-1.fc19 Package anaconda-19.27-1.fc19, pykickstart-1.99.31-1.fc19, python-blivet-0.14-1.fc19: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 19 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days.

Was not able to test 19 Beta RC1 (anaconda 19.27-1) due to boot issue. In 19 Beta RC2 (anaconda 19.28-1) I can confirm that the LVM box is checked by default, however I also saw bug 964069 (Anaconda creates native partition in text mode if LVM or btrfs is selected) when I chose the default LVM.
