Description Lorenzo 2010-04-06 16:37:29 UTC

Hi everyone, this is my first bug report... Hope i fill the form in the right way... I've just give a try to fedora 13 alpha downloaded from the main site and also a nightly build (5th april), burned correctly and booted with no problems untill the partitioning phase of the installation: i use a macbook 4,1 with GPT table and when I selected a custom partition layout (just a root partition and a swap partition, they are after an EFI and root partition of OS X) the installer stopped showing a popup that said that the hard disk /dev/sda had no MSDOS disk label.

There's no way to bypass it and complete the setup and every other distribution/os never gave me an error like that, fedora 12 never do that. I set severity to medium just because i don't know what you think of it so just change to what you want thanks for the attention

Thanks for the bug report.  I know the issue you're talking about, and I believe it's one we've already got filed.  I'm marking this as a dupe of that bug.

Thanks for your reply Chris, I hadn't considered the bug you linked here as a bug for the title. Sorry for the duplicate. Hope that the problem could be solved before f13 beta :) good work
