Proposing as a F40 Beta blocker: "When using both the installer-native and the blivet-gui-based custom partitioning flow, the installer must be able to: Assign sizes to newly-created storage volumes and containers" https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_40_Beta_Release_Criteria#Custom_partitioning > In Anaconda webUI storage configuration, when I want to create a 1 MB biosboot partition, it creates a 999 MB partition instead. Yes, this is very likely fixed by https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/19929. Thanks! Discussed during the 2024-02-12 blocker review meeting: [0] The decision to classify this bug as an "AcceptedBlocker (Beta)" was made as it violates the following criterion: "When using both the installer-native and the blivet-gui-based custom partitioning flow, the installer must be able to: Assign sizes to newly-created storage volumes and containers". Technically it can do that, but not in a way that makes any sense to a user. We are considering cockpit to be the 'installer-native' custom partitioning flow for current Workstation live images.

So trying to make a 1 MB partition ends up with a 512 byte partition... This needs fixing as well for biosboot partitions, but probably doesn't impact normal multi-GB partitions signifcantly. (In reply to Marius Vollmer from comment #8) > There is one more wrinkle, unfortunately: Something in the storage stack > causes a partition to be about 1 Mb smaller than requested. Thanks, I reported that as bug 2264412. In my testing, this seems resolved in Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-40-20240216.n.0.iso. |
