Description IBM Bug Proxy 2009-08-27 15:10:35 UTC
Installing F11 Rawhide failed during the partition phase giving traceback as shown bellow

====================
anaconda 11.5.0.59 exception report
Traceback (most recent call first):
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/partition_gui.py", line 1134, in editPartition
    raise RuntimeError, ("Returning partitions to state "
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/partition_gui.py", line 1080, in editCB
    self.editPartition(device)
RuntimeError: Returning partitions to state prior to edit failed
=====================

Machine: P510
CPU Type: power5

Steps:
1. Start f11 rawhide installation with vnc
2. Select "Use entire drive" in partitioning. This option should not leave any free space on the disk.
        * Also check for review and modify partitioning layout
        * Pressing next should be able to partition information. 
3. Select one the partition and press 'Edit'
4. Increase the size of the partition and press OK. 
       * This should give an error of saying " not enough free space on disk". Which is expected.
5. Now click on 'OK' for the error. This should generate the above mentioned exception report.
