I had same problem, I did this :
Storage Configuration: custom
click Done
you will see new window where you will see free space left and your
previously installed fedora partitions, all I did was to click on each
partiton and ticked on reformat option on the right side of the window and
then clicked on update settings.
This will create mountpoints for your new fedora 26 .
hope this works for you!!
