Description Adam Williamson 2023-08-25 19:24:35 UTC

This is a retrospective bug report for the issue addressed in https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/5066 , filed to be proposed as an F39 Beta FE. On UEFI installs we need to make sure we require /boot/efi to be present and correct (an actual EFI system partition) in the mount point assignment UI.

This is obviously important for UEFI installs to make sure the user doesn't create an unusable layout.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 4 Adam Williamson 2023-09-01 01:24:50 UTC

This is partly, but not fully, fixed. It's only fixed on the *very first* trip through the mount point assignment screen. If you contrive to run through it twice - for instance, by clicking Back and then Next, or clicking back to Installation Method on the left and proceeding to Mount point assignment again - /boot/efi never again shows up as Required.

Marking as failed QA, I will edit the update to not be considered as fixing this bug.

As webUI has been deferred to F40, deferring the FE status of this bug.
