Success 6 days later!! Tho hard telling why.

After trying all kinds of things, what seems to have worked it
--delete all partitions
--replace gpt partition table with msdos type.(Despite seeing in a
number of places that gpt was required.)
--set bios/uefi to 'legacy' only
--no lvm
--let the fedora 19 installer make all choices.

Thanks for the various suggestions.

Was it Freudian to call their new upgrader 'Fedup'?
