NetworkManager service needs to be turned on before starting the install. 1. su - 2. chkconfig NetworkManager on 3. service NetworkManager start 4. Start install -- Mrunal

In the countless Fedora live installs I've done, this step has never been required, including Fedora 17.
Lowering severity since we have a workaround. Will look into a feasible solution that doesn't require the use having to turn on NetworkManager.

I understand now that the Origin framework depends on the 'network' service (which conflicts with NetworkManager) and this is why NetworkManager is turned off by default. And I also learned that this is documented in a few places too. My bad for not reading the docs. I had planned to read them after completing the install. I am probably biased in my expectations by my long experience using Fedora spins/remixes.
