These things you mention are all anaconda specific, and you may be able to get better answers on one of the general Fedora mailing lists.
I've written there.
As for anaconda's text install, it doesn't allow for custom partition layout. It uses a fixed layout. I believe 'replace linux system' will put that layout in an existing install, but not touch other installed systems.
I've rerun the installation and tried all possible options (I think), but none of them took me to a screen like

You could try VNC install which allows custom partition layouts, or you could create new partitions and copy the installed files to them.
I thought I read VNC is not recommended. I might try, thanks.

PS: just a couple of remarks on your notes about the network on the Post-Install
1) wlan0 has ONBOOT=yes, which might confuse things. I removed it.
2) the netowrk service does not start by default, so ONBOOT=yes on eth0 is not enough after a reboot. I had to install system-config-services to enable the network service (but there must be a text only methond)
