I got this when going from a system with two md devices to a default partitioning.

Tossing on the blocker list for visibility.

Same as bug#568759 ?

--- Additional comment from jkeating on 2010-05-04 17:00:20 EDT ---

Looks similar, but without knowing the root cause, hard to tell.  This may wind up being fixed by the other issue with md devices getting removed, so I'll wait until that bug is fixed and re-try.

for me this is a blocker, per our criteria - any known fail at all when trying to set up a valid partition scheme counts as a blocker.

Seems this is still happening with 13.40

--- Additional comment from jlaska on 2010-05-06 18:10:30 EDT ---

There is an updates.img available to work around this issue.  The updates.img should be applied to anaconda-13.40-1

Makes it work here.

--- Additional comment from awilliam on 2010-05-06 22:24:37 EDT ---

that would make it fixed in 13.41, right?

Comment 3 David Cantrell 2010-05-14 22:36:45 UTC
Can we get a qa_ack on this issue?  Issued discovered and fixed during F-13 development, affects RHEL-6.

The attached logs show that there were two raid arrays md0 and md1 mounted at /boot and /. 

I've tested with the -0721.n.0 nightly (which fixes bug #615936):

1st install was with 
/boot, md1 (vda1, vdb1) - RAID 1, ext4
/ md2 (vda2, vdb2) - RAID 1, ext4

2nd install I selected Remove existing Linux partitions and "review layout". Install completed without traceback creating LVM disk layout. Moving to VERIFIED.

Comment 7 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-10 19:43:43 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
