Description Scott Robbins 2011-08-17 20:53:50 UTC

Description of problem:If, during partitioning, one doesn't create a 1-2MB BIOS partition, the following error appears:

You are using a GPT bootdisk on a non-EFI system without a
BIOS boot partition. This may not work, depending on your BIOS's support for booting from GPT disks.


This message is not clear.  It would be more useful to have a message to the effect that one doesn't create said BIOS partition, the odds are that the system will not boot.  



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Install rawhide, attempt to create a custom partitioning scheme and neglect to create a BIOS partition.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:
