Success !! Sort of. I tried many many different things i.e. using different DASD 3390 mod 3 and mod 9 and different install options etc. so finally I tried FBA .. I don't have any FBA DASD so I defined a 2G V-DISK and the install worked. Now I am OK as long as the FEDORA machine is never logged off.
