Comment 2 Joachim Backes 2010-08-04 09:27:34 UTC
Remark: Trying to install F14 into a free logical partition (not formatted) fails too (I'm sorry, no tb available), indepently from the filesystem type to be created.

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2010-08-04 14:11:24 UTC
In the future, please attach tracebacks as non-compressed plain-text files, not XML blobs.  Those are much harder to read, and compressed files are not easily searchable by bugzilla.
