Due to this bug I am unable to install Fedora on my Acer laptop.
I used:
* "Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop 44" official release Live iso
* "Fedora Media Writer" USB creation tool
And there are steps to reproduce the bug using virtual machine (I used VirtualBox):
1. Attach "Fedora-KDE-Desktop-Live-44-1.7.x86_64.iso" to VM and boot
2. Create table/partitions using "KDE Partition Manager" or any other suitable tool:
* Create GPT partition table on '/dev/sda' disk
* fat32 - 512 MiB (for /boot/efi)
* ext4 - 2 GiB (for /boot)
* btrfs - all available space (for /)
* apply all pending operations
* I got partitions:
* fat32 (/dev/sda1)
* ext4 (/dev/sda2)
* btrfs (/dev/sda3)
* set 'boot' flag for fat32 (/dev/sda1) partition (via partition "Properties")
* apply changes
3. Install system:
* Launch desktop "Install to Hard Drive"
* Language: "English (United States)" as default, press Next
* Select "Mount point assignment", press Next
* Select mount points:
* "/" -> "btrfs.46" (got this btrfs name in VM) -> "Reformat" selected
* "/boot/efi" -> "sda1" -> "Reformat" _NOT_ selected
* "/boot" -> "sda2" -> "Reformat" selected
* Press Next
* Confirm "I understand that some existing data will be erased"
* Click "Apply mount point assignment and install"
4. Wait and got 'anaconda' exception
Hello, all! Also I tested and encountered the same bug on the latest Fedora Desktop ISOs (v 1.7): * Workstation (Fedora-Workstation-Live-44-1.7.x86_64.iso) * KDE (Fedora-KDE-Desktop-Live-44-1.7.x86_64.iso) * xfce (Fedora-Xfce-Live-44-1.7.x86_64.iso) Obviously, using the current anaconda version you can not install Fedora with a btrfs (default one) root partition and "Mount point assignments" installation type using Live ISO images. *** Bug 2464303 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 2464775 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I discussed the bug on the "Fedora Discussion" forum with additional details and a workaround.
