Appears 100% reproducible, FWIW. Looks like we have two problems here. First, there's a problem with doing the kind of partitioning you want. Second, our error handling is busted so we can't even display the error message. When you reproduce this, are you getting the exception dialog? If so, please press the debug button and then post the results of: type(msg) to this bug report. If possible, perhaps we could talk about this in IRC and I could step you through some debugging things that would really help figure this one out. I reinstalled the box (I needed, you know, a working box ;) so I can't reproduce it anymore (couldn't by the time you responded.) I could have sworn I mentioned that here, but I guess not. :/ From conversation in #anaconda, trying to get to the root cause of this: 15:46 < leitao> (Pdb) type(msg) 15:46 < leitao> <type 'instance'> 15:46 < clumens> hmmm 15:47 < clumens> okay one sec. don't quit out of it yet. 15:48 < leitao> clumens: sure. 15:48 < clumens> print msg.__class__.__name__ 15:48 < leitao> (Pdb) print msg.__class__.__name__ 15:48 < leitao> PartitioningError 15:48 < clumens> wha? 15:48 < leitao> clumens: I think this message comes from disk.add_partition. 15:49 < clumens> so we have a PartitioningError containing a PartitioningError 15:49 < clumens> okay well let's see what the real problem was. print msg.__str__() 15:50 -!- lmr [n=lmr.18.240] has joined #anaconda 15:50 < leitao> (Pdb) print msg.__str__() 15:50 < leitao> Error: Too many primary partitions.

Anaconda works only if no windows is installed, if tested this by remove all my windows partitions.....
