Hello, I have tried installing the Fedora 16 Alfa. I have got multiple encrypted systems on my computer and my partition table is like that: 1) Truecrypt/Windows 2) Boot 3) LUKS/Ubuntu 4) Extended 5) LUKS/Fedora root 6) LUKS/Fedora home 7) LUKS/swap ... During the installation I have checked to format sda5 (Fedora) and install / there. Anaconda really formated sda5, but for some reason it has tried to mount sda3 as /mnt/sysimage and install system there. Luckily I have got backup of whole drive so no damage to me. To workaround this issue I had to delete partition 3 from the partition table and remove it back after installation. Michal Ambroz *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 693095 *** |
