crash report
I removed the /boot partition when reviewing autopart results to try testing booting with lvm stage2.
Since sda3 was a pv for the system vg it was marked as immutable and was not re-allocated. When actually allocating the partition it ends up as sda2 and the format still thinks it should be sda3. Another case for always setting formats' paths from devices' _postSetup methods.
anaconda-16.17-1.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/anaconda-16.17-1.fc16 Package anaconda-16.17-1.fc16: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 16 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing anaconda-16.17-1.fc16' as soon as you are able to.

log file of failure to wipe and create disk partitions.
Patched anaconda does not fix the problem. I've attempted to install both the F16 Beta iso from DVD and the F16 Beta LXDE spin iso from cd (both x86_64 versions) with no success. They both failed when trying to wipe/create the partitions. Doesn't matter if I take the default layout or try a special layout. In both cases I've turned off "Use LVM".
I hit this in anaconda-16.18-1 (beta RC1) and using the updates.img from #737916 (In reply to comment #5) > I hit this in anaconda-16.18-1 (beta RC1) and using the updates.img from > #737916 Can you attach the anaconda-tb- file? Created attachment 523577 [details]

Reinstall using a "creative" workaround: Choose "Use all space" on the BIOS-raid disk did not get into this state. It completed, and system booted OK. |
