Are you using LBA? Enable LBA in your bias if you can, probably will solve the issue. Why don't you make the sacrifice and download the later version of RH.

I am unable to is diskdruid I am asked to choose my partitions and when I have done so I am told that the partion which I am installing the OS on "/" is either above some sort of limit then I am unable to figure out how to
create a swap area. I was hoping to use the partition I set aside to create both "/" and the swap .
Im sorry for rambling but I have no clue what I am doing I thought I had an Idea as how to go about this
