Typo put a nvme disk in, and did it again, but changed the order of 
partition creation to see if that would make a difference.
Originally / , /boot/efi, /boot and /home
This time /boot/efi, /boot, / and /home
Again first partition showed startin as 34 not 2048.
Used gparted to move it over. Originally had it as .6G, but after 
move and resize it became 571M instead of the 600M

Disk /dev/nvme0n1: 238.47 GiB, 256060514304 bytes, 500118192 sectors
Disk model: WD PC SN810 SDCPNRY-256G-1006           
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: 4581EDD8-BA4C-4B9D-B362-6E9E47D4566B

Device             Start       End   Sectors   Size Type
/dev/nvme0n1p1      2048   1171455   1169408   571M EFI System
/dev/nvme0n1p2   1171456   5076991   3905536   1.9G Linux filesystem
/dev/nvme0n1p3   5076992 161327103 156250112  74.5G Linux filesystem
/dev/nvme0n1p4 161327104 500117503 338790400 161.5G Linux filesystem

/dev/nvme0n1p3  76319516 7787008  64609872  11% /
/dev/nvme0n1p2   1883580  454304   1315256  26% /boot
/dev/nvme0n1p4 165625456   23704 157115608   1% /home
/dev/nvme0n1p1    583540   20512    563028   4% /boot/efi

So not sure what the installation uses to create the partitions. 
Did noticed the live image does not have gparted already installed. 
In past had to add with dnf.
