The same happens here an an x86_64 system. I have an ext3 boot partition to which I usually write the boot sector. Current "rawhide" falls flat on its face, unfortunately -after- formatting the system partitions :o(

- anaconda-11.5.0.23-1.x86_64
- booty-0.108-1.fc11.noarch

This should be fixed in the next build of anaconda.  Thanks for the bug report.
