I wanted to install manually a "small" distribution on /dev/sdb3

Under the install, I can select the mount point /  (required)

It says recommended, but it seems that it is required
I cannot to go to next step till I select a device.
Actually, it could be a partition on sda or on sdb
But, with 2 hard drives that I could remove, I think that
it is better to have 2 /boot : one on each HD.

Fedora can use /boot in /, it doesn't need a separate partition, but you
might need to do custom or manual configuration, whatever it's called
now.  It will probably need an EFI partition though.

I guess that this machine is not EFI (no /sys/system/efi directory)
Anyway.
It works almost fine, except that the ordering of the kernel boots is not what 
I which
grubby --info=ALL provides the "right" order for each system.
Can I force to have /boot1 (system 1) and then /boot2 (system 2)
It seems that I cannot
grub2-install /dev/sda

I could touch /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Booting multiple Fedora installs from the same grub can be tricky. I think the easiest way is for one of the grub configs to have an entry to chain to the other config.
