select the least install with Gnome or kde and X.try it.it is difficult with fedora if some scratch or dvd error cannot complete installation.sometimes waiting for some time(1/2 hours or so :( ) may complete the installation.

if it errs out,
the only option is to select Gnome and some necessary things.once u complete the installation,u can install later other packages inside fedora system with its package manager(system-config-packages).but i'll say if u want to try use a fedora livecd(700MB) either Gnome or kde.
even there are other distros like Ubuntu or Debian if u wanna try.

i would suggest to do " Minimun installation " in " Text Mode " and then after isntalling the base of fedora.... u can later install other softwares.
