Comment 15 Chris Murphy 2012-12-08 05:25:33 UTC
Bug is 100% reproducible. Proposing as blocker.

Fedora 18 beta release criterion #10: custom partitioning mode must be capable of...Creating, destroying and assigning mount points to partitions of any specified size using most commonly-used filesystem types...and rejecting obviously invalid operations without crashing.

Comment 16 Chris Murphy 2012-12-08 05:45:45 UTC
Also reproducible with a blank virtual disk. And it doesn't matter what order I try to manually add a swap mount point, or what size I use, I get a crash. Seems like a regression, I'm sure this used to work.

Comment 17 Jan Sedlák 2012-12-10 13:54:17 UTC
Tried to add swap partition.

Package: anaconda-18.37
OS Release: Fedora release 18

Comment 18 Reartes Guillermo 2012-12-10 14:40:29 UTC
i selected one disk, went to manual partitioning (but set type to btrfs) 

i deleted all partitions

it happens when i create a 'swap' (example size: 512mb)



Package: anaconda-18.37
OS Release: Fedora release 18

Comment 19 Reartes Guillermo 2012-12-10 14:52:28 UTC
Affected:

Manual Partitioning (TYPE set to BTRFS)
Manual Partitioning (TPYE set to LVM)

Unaffected:

Manual Partitioning (TPYE set to STANDARD PARTITION)

Comment 20 Adam Williamson 2012-12-10 19:33:36 UTC
Discussed at 2012-12-10 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-bugzappers/2012-12-10/f18final-blocker-review-3.2012-12-10-17.13.log.txt . Accepted as a blocker per criterion "The installer must be able to create and install to any workable partition layout using any file system offered in a default installer configuration, LVM, software, hardware or BIOS RAID, or combination of the above".
