Comment 12 Martin Kolman 2017-08-11 11:13:04 UTC 
Definitely looks like something storage related, so reassigning to liblockdev for further triage.
Comment 13 Jan Kurik 2017-08-15 07:19:44 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 27 development cycle.
Changing version to '27'.
Comment 14 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2017-10-01 07:53:35 UTC 
Proposed as a Blocker and Freeze Exception for 27-beta by Fedora user frieben using the blocker tracking app because:

 Anaconda fails to process a LUKS-encrypted volume group after the setup stage even though the password had been entered successfully, and individual volumes had been assigned when specifying the disk layout. The installer aborts and leaves the user with an unbootable system because this happens after reformatting the unencrypted /boot partition. This behaviour violates the following requirement:

"The installer must be able to create and install to any workable partition layout using any file system and/or container format combination offered in a default installer configuration."
Comment 15 Andre Robatino 2017-10-01 07:55:06 UTC 
You want this to be a Final blocker, Beta has been approved already.
Comment 16 Vratislav Podzimek 2017-10-02 09:19:36 UTC 
Joachim, could you please try to reproduce this with the current F27 images? I just tried reusing encrypted LVM volumes for a new installation and everything worked just fine.
Comment 17 Kamil Páral 2017-10-02 16:56:24 UTC 
Discussed at blocker review meeting [1]:

Punt (delay decision) - We'll wait until this has detailed reproduction steps and somebody else manages to successfully reproduce it.

Comment 18 Lukas Brabec 2017-10-03 09:37:24 UTC 
I wasn't able to reproduce this with Fedora-Everything-netinst-x86_64-27-20171002.n.1.iso. 
I successfully reused encrypted LVM from previous installation (decrypt in anaconda, reformat / and /boot, install the system a boot with the password set in previous installation).
Comment 19 Joachim Frieben 2017-10-03 18:03:19 UTC 
(In reply to Martin Kolman from comment #12)
This issue occurred using a Fedora 27 development live image on real hardware. At that time, Fedora 27 already featured current package libblockdev-2.12-1.fc27.
As of Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-27_Beta-1.5, the install performs successfully without the crash reported above. It therefore seems that setting the relevant component to libblockdev was not appropriate.
Comment 20 Joachim Frieben 2017-10-03 18:07:10 UTC 
I have to correct myself: the original install was actually using blockdev-2.11-1.fc27.
