---[ System & Environment Information ]---
OS: Fedora Linux 44 (KDE Plasma Desktop Edition)
Anaconda version: 44.30
Anaconda UI version: 68

Please attach the log file /tmp/journal.log to the issue.

I am not sure how to report this bugs since it failed during clean installation of new Fedora 44 KDE. This bug never appeared when I first install clean Fedora 43 KDE.

Bugs list:
1. Created proper bootable media for Fedora 44 KDE. During installation, if you don't connect to internet and try to install Fedora 44 KDE, it gives error midway installation that you're not able to complete installation due to internet connectivity not available. I mean, any OS should be able to install whether you have internet or not. later on update can be installed if user needed. I was not able to report this bug because there wasn't any option to report it on that screen. Later to avoid this bug, i connected to internet but 2nd bug mentioned below occurred. This is just major roadblock to new installation. Normal user can't even install Fedora 44 KDE.

2.This anaconda bug didn't appear before in clean installation of Fedora 43 KDE but now for clean installation of Fedora 44 KDE, it seems to be striked again.
