Is 200M on /boot enough for F12 *installation* (not upgrade)?

Anecdotal evidence would suggest that you will be fine. I have yum
upgraded my machine from F11 -> Rawhide -> F12 and I have a 200MB boot
partition. It contains:

[sam at samlap ~]$ sudo du -x /boot
[sudo] password for sam:
224	/boot/efi/EFI/redhat
226	/boot/efi/EFI
228	/boot/efi
271	/boot/grub
13	/boot/lost+found
49539	/boot

So only 50MB in use... I think you will be OK, unless Anaconda is
enforcing some kind of rule that isn't technically necessary.
