Steps to reproduce:

1. use a disk that has an existing NTFS formatted partition and chose "create custom layout"
2. select the NTFS formatted partition and click "edit".

this happens on my raid0 array that is using nvidia 680i fakeraid, my system also has 2 other disks in jbod.

Just to add that in my case partition was ext2. I simply tried to label it as /boot when trying to install F11-rawhide from boot.iso (todays rawhide).

However, I did have two other partitions that where NTFS on the same disk.
