==Install using Anaconda f18 RC1 DVDx86_64==
*This tutorial uses a booted dd to USB of the DVD.iso
:Updated Jan 06 2013
;This install is used when you want to install a fedora 18 desktop to a hard-disk;
:A similar but simpler installer is entered in booted Live CD's using the command '''liveinst''' in root sugar-terminal(su) or other root terminal.
;this differs from the installer on fedora 17 or older versions
