Were there any read errors in dmesg when this occurred? Did you verify the iso when you put it on the usb stick?
I didn't verify if are read errors in dmesg; yes I verify the iso before put it on the usb stick. I did also another check: installed F9-Preview Live iso in VM guest under F8 KVM with the default lvm layout and all is good with that installation. So maybe the layout on disk of the first installation was weird ?

After the LiveUSB installation crash I tried an http network installation with boot.iso from 16/17.04.2008 rawhide. This time I don't have any problem with anaconda and installation run very well so now I run a F9 post-Preview freshly installed.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
