Reproduced using netinst iso Petr, next time please put the traceback directly into comment (for bugzilla searches), thanks.

Discussed at 2012-08-16 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-bugzappers/2012-08-16/f18-alpha-blocker-review-3.2012-08-16-16.00.html As we had already agreed to waive the requirement for the text interface to *exist at all* for Alpha, it seems illogical to consider any bug that's in the text interface only to block Alpha release. Thus, this is rejected as a blocker. We could re-consider it for Beta, but in practice it's likely to be fixed by then. anaconda-18.6-1.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/anaconda-18.6-1.fc18 Package anaconda-18.6-1.fc18: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 18 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing anaconda-18.6-1.fc18' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-12095/anaconda-18.6-1.fc18 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Proposing as NTH - we should have done that at the meeting. I'm +1. Discussed at 2012-08-20 QA meeting, acting as an NTH review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting/2012-08-20/fedora-qa.2012-08-20-15.00.html . Accepted as NTH as obviously we want to avoid installer crashes, and the fix should be restricted to the text UI codepath so quite safe. anaconda-18.6-1.fc18 has been pushed to the Fedora 18 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
Created attachment 604959 [details] log with traceback Description of problem: This happens only in TUI. When I want to partition an empty (uninicialized) disk, anaconda falls. I've attached log, where is the traceback and the way I get to that point. System is restarted right after this happened so it is impossible to read the traceback (I had to use console=ttyS0 to gather the "log") Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-18.5 Alpha-TC2 x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create new virtual guest in virt-manager and create new disk img 2. boot DVD.iso and write text to boot line 3. after anaconda starts, go to partitioning, choose new disk and try to install to partition it Actual results: anaconda falls, and system is restarted Expected results: it should remember partitioning propose and continue to hub Additional info:
